The things to ask your board supplier would be: 1) Was the Pre-preg material that was used on this board within its Shelf life? and ask for the Incoming inspection CofC for the Pre-preg material. 2)Was this order shipped from Stock - this is why

Hi Don't really know what "your grainy" means. It could be good, marginal, or bad. You need to get some photos or micrographs of what is normal and off-normal. Compared to Sn/Pb 63/37 on mostly Sn it should look visually different. Every time you c

We had the exact same problem in early stages of lead-free. Very random positions of defect + some boards were 100% O.K. and others were an explosion of what I see in your picture. Turned out to be bad processing/materials from board house. I'm do

Tg is just a way to say when the board goes limp... or a quick way to rank laminates... who cares. For lead free you want to look at Td, Decomposition Temperatures. ( Temp at which the material weight changes by 5% )

The parts were soldered in place on the first side. Any recommendations on material for this kind of fixture? I've shimmed boards off the belt before with titanium wave plows...but, I'd love to find something slightly more elegant.

Juki is selling these ovens in the USA. They might be able to give you a list of customers that you can contact independently. I saw a bigass one at IPC APEX. It seemed well built with good materials.

Anyone use glass filled nylon connectors utilising the intrusive reflow techique (pin in paste). We are having probe with them becoming brittle after reflow- apparently due to moisture. We are also seeing bubbling on outside plastic.Peak oven temp 22

There's a fair amount of material on cooling rates for lead free on the web. Look here: * http://www.speedlinetech.com/docs/Cooling-Slopes-Lead-Free-Reflow.pdf * http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3776/is_200412/ai_n9473486 * http://www.m

Not to be off-topic, but push engineering for embedded passives and remove parts from the underside all together. Watch the material cost sky rocket, but watch the manufacturing cost sink and well as improve the production cycle by 50%. Sorry, I w

I think the oxidation on the pad happens easily but do not on Au plated pad.The reason may be caused by improper cleaning or Au plating thickness in plating process. But,before suspecting the pcb board, you need to check your process or used material
