Good morning Dave, Here are some of my assumptions. Please correct me if I am wrong. 1. Mask opening. Due to mask to PCB misregistration mask is not always centered relative to pad center how is should be. Sometimes edge of the mask matches with ed

I would be glad to help you eliminate the solder balling and beading that you are seeing. As this is a fairly common defect, I would like to forward you an Application Note that we have developed that explains the cause and possible solutions. Most

Hi Jacky, It seems you have solder bead problem, beading occurs when the solder paste brick splatter as a component is placed into it, after reflow, the splatter becomes a spherical solder ball. Hope this will help. Steve USA STENCILS

Thanks for the reply, how do people handle different packages then if you can't add new ones? If we had a 1206 sized inductor, then a 1206 sized ferrite bead and so on, they would all have to be grouped under the same generic heading? e.g. Chip-R321

I am currently placing aprox. 95 to 100 1206 size ferrite beads onto a pcb and having difficulty solding these parts. They appear to be soldered when the board comes off the reflow, but you can flic the parts off by hand. We thought they were contami

Hi Pat, is the soldering Ok when you solder them by hand ? We use some larger ferrite beads with no problems in reflow but I must say that we use a vapour phase and only max 5 parts/PCB. They do have a high thermal capacity and you use a lot of them,

| Anyone using SMT "Fair-Rite" beads? We have a P/N 2743019447 that we're using. We need to know the shear force strength of the part and the vendor's man who knows is in Deutschland and can't help until Monday. I can't wait that long. | | Also, do

We are having a lot of tomb stoning with this no clean solder paste. It's limited to larger, complex boards, affecting 0603 ferrite beads, capacitors and SOT23s. It was suggested that paste removed from a stencil should not be put back in it's origin
