We have had some discussions about what causes parts to lift out of the holes when going over the wave on our flow solder machine. The machine being used is a Treiber (700 series). There are two bottom pre-heaters and one top pre-heater. We try to pr

Hi Thanks, Going to APEX to see personal demos and hear what they offer and recommend is a great idea. I mean if you want to put AOI everyplace I am sure you will be supported with open arms. What I found interesting in the article was that large

Minor problem with rejected parts on a GSM C4 single flex head. UIC support was helpfull but I thought some of you may have encountered this problem and know what's the matter. We are rejecting 1 out of 3 SOT-63 parts. The problem is occuring to part

I think he did mentioned the board size in the inital thread: "265mm x 207mm pcb", but maybe it was not clear written. I have a question about rework and pre-heat: is it necessary to have the pre-heater to cover the whole board size, even if you onl

We've experienced this issue with SN100. A couple of things we've tried, all with varying levels of success: 1. Longer pre-heats. We use SN100 in a solder pot, and pre-heat the boards on our wave machine. This did have a positive effect, but I ne

I have Mpm ap25hie, s/w ver 7.1a The problem I have is that the machine works fine until I teach or use the pre board stop function. As soon as I use this the machine will not load the pcb to the centre of the work nest. I can manually change boardst

Hi Felix, First thing to verify is that your supplier is actually suppling you with the correct material. China is known for not keeping with the requested materials and will substitute if not controlled. I would recomend ITEQ, TUC or Nan ya for of

Hi Patrick, thanks for the response. I might add some more information - we succesfully soldered some boards with the same settings of belt speed, pre-heat temp. etc. This batch of boards differs from the previous in a way that they are 4-layer. May

| Mornin! | | We just had vendor in here pitching a "low-temperature rework system" which was intriguing, but too expensive. He did get me to thinking though, beyond heating ceramic caps before hand-soldering them, it seems like it would be ad
