Rob, thank you for input. I notice you mention a baking process for the flex circuits, this is our first time with flex assembly, do the flex circuits need to be baked prior SMT, Moisture? Thanks, David

Jorge, Your description of the process sounds about right. A fixture to hold the flex cable taut (and in a repeatable location) that allows you to paste/place/reflow is essential. As for notes: Be hyper aware of moisture/humidity in regards to

Dear experts, We are in stage to fix lapse or hold time between pre-bake to reflow process ( SMT ) for flex-rigid PCB, usually for flex pcb , we need to assemble as early as possible once after baking & if not , we can store in humidifier up to some

Did I mention, we tried to use the same WS flux formulae to brush-cover the affected flex-PCB pads, and subject it to another round of water-wash, followed by oven-baking, and it still doesn't help abit? Oven bake : 100 deg-C, approx 15~30mins (manu

Can you tell me how to distinguish between them? I recently bought a second GSM2. With it I've got two FlexJet heads (dismounted). The serial number of both heads starts with FJ7P, so I assume they are of FJ7 type? The issue is - it seems that the he

Is the stiffener a piece of FR4, or a component that needs to be installed? We've done a number of flex assemblies taht have a rigid stiffener, generally a piece of rigid flex, or FR4 that has the components mounted on it. This type of stiffener

Maybe more baking time is needed. Topside board temp too low. Moisture trapped in board. Top of through hole capped by component and trapping flux. http://www.speedlinetech.com/electrovert/electrovert-troubleshooting/index.htm

A good set of fixtures are what you need to get it done right. Since we are in the same area, I would recommend give ATD (Advance Tooling Design)a try, they located in San Jose. We been using fixtures from them for years. We build thousands of Fle

My first reaction would be to run! FAST! Flex -- well, it... flexes... and isn't flat. While you assemble it, While you transport it, While it goes through the oven... SMT Connectors typically need to be held down during reflow. Fiducial types are

Hi Experts, I need help here, advice appreciated from all... Production is running a Lot of flex-circuit PCB, through the SMT line, with 0402 components. The flex-PCB is taped to FR4 support "pallets" when processing thru' the SMT P&P m/c. We use
