I may suggest talking with the fellas at SMT Research. They have an awesome tool (POD) that can measure it for you if you're interested in having them do it. From my experience, they are always willing to talk with you over the phone too, so I'd ima

Are you guys providing adequate board support during glue dispense and placement? I've had this same problem with 0603's that I was able to correct with adequate board support. Also, if you're using a Fuji glue machine, what are your temperature sett
