We're looking at redesigning our stencils to facilitate better (well, it's pretty much non-existant, so any improvement is a big leap) release from fine pitch apertures. Currently we have perpendicular walled laser cut apertures. We'll be having

I have a question on component placement 1)for solder paste ,do we need to press the component into solder paste during placement process? 2)how we define force for Smt component..sometimes we add force for certain BGA?any guideline? Pls advise

I currently run Siemens and they have their own recommendations about placement force. Most of the passive parts will be placed using 2N. For some BGA'a we will go about 4N and for certain parts that are very easy to break you should go 1N. All parts

Hello All, This would be a question for someone with experience in PCB design, Intrusive reflow Narrow profile connector(Electrode Rectangular) L=1mm X W=0.9mm. What shape and size hole is required in the PCB to ensure sufficient solderability and re

If you hold your board sideways in a 90 degree angle you apply a force of 1 g to your components. 1 g translates into 32 ft / sec. square. This is not too much acceleration for fearless roller coaster drivers but Melf�s and Tantalums can fall off at

We agree with Wolfgang. Adding points along his line of reasoning: * Also consider placed component prescience. Sometimes, a mis-pick results in paste on the nozzle, which leads to the next component being stuck on the nozzle and not placed, which

This depends on the model. Most machines and turret style typically overstroke .2mm with a force of 250 - 300 grams of force. the reason for the over stroke is to place the component into the paste. This can be adjusted through part library manipul

By "placement pressure" I assume you mean force. I don't know of placement machines that have transducers mounted on the placement spindles that actually measure force. We made a board with a force sensor mounted through a hole so that it was the sa

Hi, I am an Engineering student doing some research on the component/nozzle interface on SMT Pick and Place machines. Could anyone tell me the force at which the nozzle hits the component as it is picked from the feeder or the placement force on a

Anyone wants to share his idea or method of calculating Cost per placement in both high and low volume manufacturing environment? Thanks,
