My small reflow oven doesn't have the rails (only metal mesh). I personally don't think it was built for double side reflow assembly and there is vibration as well. We are a small low volume mfg house and our reflow oven doesn't have the capability t

Here's how to double reflow your QFP: * Reflow the first side with the QFP according to plan. * Paste second side and place components according to plan. * Lightly crinkle a small, QFP-size piece of aluminum foil. [Note: the degree of crinklization

Are you considering baking due to moisture exposure? Not all OSPs are created equal. I would check with your PWB fabricator about dry times and effects on their OSP finish. After you get it, I'd still try just one PWB for bake-dry out and check solde

We recently came to a cross roads... We have historically baked out ALL of our circuit cards, with a 2 fold purpose 1) to dry the part marking ink, and 2) to eliminate any moisture, which could result in measling further in the process of assembly.

There are no requirements acceptance criteria for baking of board assemblies. What are your customer requirements? The common reasons people choose to bake PCB are to prevent: * Delamination of multilayer boards * Measles, particularly on double si

Hi , i desire to find the type of information : When the Soldering must be performed after baking for the PWB to not have a POP problem link to the moisture ? And the time for a flexible PWB ? thanks best regards

Amazing in today's technology that people still bake because "that's the way we've alawys done it". Baking is a band aid for poor manufacturing of the PCB. Moisture can become trapped between the layers during buildup. This moisture when it contacts

Here is what you need to do if you can, Since you want to shporten the bake time you need to increase temp. weigh a board prior to your current bake process (you need very hi resolution scale for this) weigh the same board after current process a

It's both solderpaste or PCB pad problem... 1st it's possible that your PCB exposure problem or old stocks, remedy? try to bake your PWB. 2nd, it's possible that PWB coating (wax) are more ticked so that solder paste flux are cannot penetrate to clea
