Hi All, We are producing PCBA with COB process. We are using kapton tape to protect the COB pads from solder splashes/stains. Questions: 1) Is kapton tape an industry accepted way of protecting gold pads from solder splashes? 2) What are the chance

Q1. Is kapton tape an industry accepted way of protecting gold pads from solder splashes? A1. No. It is more accepted to resolve the reason behind the solder splats, so that the added labor and cost of taping is eliminated. Search the fine SMTnet Arc

Is the peelable mask (put on by the boardhouse) flat on the surface of the pcb? If so can you tell me the material name, so maybe I can find a picture? We have to print adhesive on the board, so the mask has to be flat. That is why Kapton from the b

Hello Fredrick, I have used several methods of TC attachment including quick set adheasives (not good at reflow temps as Dave suggests) long set two part epoxies (work well if you have the time to wait for a sufficiant cure) temprobes, tape (kapton

If you think the problem is occurring in the box and it is wide spread, consider replacing your solder paste with your paste supplier. There are paste formulations aimed at the solder balling issue that some LF pastes create. On tuning your reflow r

Hi John, We use Spray mount adhesive on durastone pallets, then kapton tape on the egdes. We have produced upto 25K flexi PCB's a day with this method. The trick is to get just the right amount on the pallet, to maintain tackiness. Cheers, Rob.
