Patrick, I learned at a Lead-Free seminar, where the seminar lecturer was a proponent of Bismuth in soldering, that Bismuth is actually "safe to eat" and is one of the few non-toxic metals around.

Is it safe to assume that you're only talking about SMT reflow here?

we have an operator who is being prescribed to wear a bone growth stimulation system. Does anyone know if tis is ESD safe? Can he wear that on the production floor as long as he's grounded and have it stored inside his smock?

Thanks, GS This is a SMT LCD device with a plastic housing; we need to save the part if we can. I'm afraid the localized heat will damage it so not sure if that will be safe.

We use the dosimeter badges and also check every morning with the machine at full power using a handheld meter around the door openings and glass just to be safe. JD

Hello, for 1 year we are using meshed stencils and us cleaner, and suddenly we faced few stencils glued off the mesh... anyone can comment this phenomenon? is this safe? or you also had problems with such configuration regards

How many times can you safely run a board across the wave solder? We have an unwritten rule here saying that twice is all that we can do. But it has been an unwritten rule for so long that no one knows where it orginated. Thanks for your imput.

Hi there, in my factory we use profiling every temp. change or once per day others make 1 profile for machine per week what is safe in your oppinion to be sure that all products made are good :) or if 1 per week is enough how to prove it to bosses

There is no standard for the spacing of components, nor should there be. We have a difficult time picturing your 0805 at a 45* to the wave and the safe pin, but we'd guess this spacing needs to be 10 thou.

Guess we find out tomorrow. End of the world type of stuff, just like Y2K. I'm gonna start looting now, just to be safe.
