It is quite common for this to be done with an activator cured acrylic adhesive (eg, Dymax, Loctite, Permabond). This method took over from mechanical clips and epoxy some years ago because using: * Mechanical clips changes the magnetic circuit. * Ep

Materials you see are corner bond adhesive, main purpose of this is mechanical shock absorber , it promotes additional adhession to lessen stress to solder joints incase device subjected to mechanical stress like dropping.By function, corner bond

KIC Thermal Profiling did a DOE [Nepcon West 1999] [you probably can find it posted on their site] on thermocouple attach. Comparing the reliability and repeatability of thermocouple attachment methods: * High temperature solder was found to be the

There are two primary causes of epoxy adhesive bond failure, heat and over exposure to moisture. Ultrasonic cavitation is a only a mechanical "scrubbing" action on a microscopic level. However, if the adhesive bond is week or has small areas of det

Wow, you're using the Surface Mount Adhesive for mechanical vibration? I've never heard of SMT adhesive being used for things other than holding the components in place before wave solder. Does it work for mechanical purposes? Glue/Wave is a proce

Yes SWAG you are right, heat could be dangerous for the parts to be removed. Any way it is not so easy to remove epoxy adhesive (3609) once it is cured. By heating the adhesive (over his TG temperature)it gets softened and by using a mec

Hello Loz, Blue residues on circuit boards can be caused by copper corrosion, component body deterioration, marking permanently, and adhesive break down. In this case, a more subtle mechanism appears to be possible. This is a no clean application

IPC-HDBK-830, Guidelines for Design, Selection and Application of Conformal Coatings says: A conformal coating may have several functions depending on the type of application. The most common are: * Inhibit current leakage and short circuit due to h

| HI everyone, | | We are using a Siemens ap-25 screen printer, in the past we have not had any problems with adhesive placement until a couple of weeks ago. It seems the x axis has decided that it should be set somewhere between .00085 and .001

Se�or Tech Consider the following in evaluating your adhesive: * Determine the ability to dispense/print epoxy dots over the full range of application diameters/volumes. * Assess the ability to dispense/print epoxy without undesirable characteristic
