Hello Reese, We currently own two MIRTEC MV-3 desktop machines and one MV-7 inline machine (so you can tell right away that I am a little biased.) We had an opportunity to evaluate both the YESTech and MIRTEC machines on our production floor. The

Have you tried waving the board rotated 90* from the normal orientation?

Dave that's actually what I want to work on the next time we run these. Our issue with these right now is that weight distribution on the boards mandates that we break a 4-up panel into two pieces and run it 90 degrees to the ideal orientation (=s wh

That's a good idea. We did pull the bridge piece off of one just to see what happens with the receptacles only, so no flux blockage. They flowed great with no blowholes, but also filled with solder. :/

We've got an auto fuse clip (a pair of tin/nickle spade type receptacles joined with a nylon bridge piece) giving us fits. The pins on this thing have a right angle profile (symmetrical "L" shape) and make great flux traps. No amount of tweaking pre

Try lifting the part with a small piece of paper. I've seen caps that did this and giving the flux a way to vent out the top side of the board got rid of the blow holes. It'll take ya 2 seconds to to try - that plus the 3 minutes to wave solder.

Hi Guys.. Does anybody had experienced with designing the stencil for Right Angle LED without any dewetting problem on the LED termination? Currently our stencil opening is 1:1 and we still got so high reject due to this problem. Pls Advise, thanks

Thank D.B. Cooper, actually this LED has 3 sides termination but no termination at underneath of LED. So this LED tends to float rather than performing solder joint during reflow process.

Hello Everyone, Does anyone have any experience with an SMT right angle LED from Panasonic, part number LNJ123W8PRZ. In our experience the pattern design from the vendor was not very effective (the part swam around on the pads & flipped backwards dur

Hard to tell, but it looks as if this LED has no side termination, so it may only look like dewetting. If everything around this part is reflowing, I'd bet that's all this is.
