We're having a lot of problems with failed solder joints to gold-plated MOSFET leads. Gold plate thickness spec is 60uin, but we've seen as much as 200uin in cross-section, so we're obviously concerned about gold embrittlement issues. Pre-tinning w

I found the problem... the vx cable trunking was the wrong radius, so when the axis was moving at slower speeds to read pre stop position, the axis was not reading the platen correctly due to extra downward force.. Ive now replaced the trunking and

Hi, Thanks for the info. The current process is a standard SMT hand soldering process. The time does not include cleaning, prepping and pre-tinning. Its just the time for the re-flow of one joint itself. We are waiting on some new tips to experimen

We are having issues with top fill and dropping pins on Molex connectors with our KISS 101. Unfortunately we do not have a pre heater and bottom side pre heat with our nozzles is not satisfactory. Most of the issues occur when using a no clean proces

Hello: Pre-baking laminates should only be performed:(1) to meet contractual agreements or (2) in response to an actual defect that can be traced to PWB water absortion. Besides the fact that a pre-bake is an enormous process "bottleneck," it also

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

I need to side mount a standard HC-49/U crystal on a board using double sided foam tape. I am looking for a source for pre-cut foam tape. In prototype runs I have used 3M #4950 foam tape cut to size one at a time. But for production I want it pre-

Tuan - One of the reasons I suggested pre-tinning (aside from the negative effects of Gold on appearance and reliability) is the known slower wetting of Sn/Ag and Sn/Cu alloys as compared to Sn/Pb. If you don't have to be Lead-free, the high Lead
