Hi mate, AOI seems great for : 1) missing 2) wrong parts 3) wrong orientation 4) x-y axis misalignment 5) upside down placement 6) etc.....? AOI shucks for : 7) unsolder (joint) defect 8) tombstone / tilt My guys are evaluating AOI m/c, for substi

I am working on 0201 development for my company in the UK, and I am planning a rather extensive DOE for my reflow oven profile. I am planning on studying various ramp rates, soak times, times above liquidus, peak temps, etc... My biggest concern

Much of the focus of pick & place machine supplier development efforts seems to directed towards either: * Head location detection, adjustment, and control. OR * Component location prior to pick-up. OR * Component position error correction after pick

Hello, I have a board that has been giving us problems for some time now. It is fairly well populated, mostly with IC's and SOT's on the topside. There is a Zilinx QFP160. This component does not reflow well. All of the other components look OK. A t

Home plate apertures are designed to reduce or eliminate solder balls that occur when placing a chip and reflow of the solder. This aperture type is usually desired when processing with a "no-clean" solder paste. The design of the aperture is usually

Every time you see one of those �National Geographic� articles showing pictures of clothing sweatshops in developing countries, the girls are sitting at gray Juki sewing machines. Juki placement machines were branded and distributed in the Americas

Kenny- there are a few standards by IPC and EIA that address the strength of solder. A pull test (which is a destructive test) will average 1500 PSI per joint. My concern is that you are wanting to increase solder volume for an 0805 component by inc

Does anyone know of effective pick and placement optimisation tools for the Yamaha YM84 (Phillips CSM84). We are small manufacturers that have 2 YM84 machines, 1 being a triple pick machine for placing jelly beans and the other for placing IC's. We a

Edmund, I agree with Wolfgang there is no reason for 0603s to be falling from the bottom side during the top side reflow. I assume what you are having problems with is a higher mass component like a large tantalum, inductor, or perhaps an active de
