Make sure that your mesh conveyor drive chain is not jumping a sprocket tooth. This will cause the conveyor to "pop" and you will have skewed parts. I seriously doubt that it is your profile causing skew. It is more than likely something mechanical.

Circuit and Local Fiducials are all the same. The difference is the amount of "Stretch and Skew" that is accounted for. Local fiducials apply "Stretch and Skew" to a single placement or area of the circuit, depending on Equipment used. Circuit fiduci

Hi, Have been observed the post reflow inductor skew which is weight of 3.50grams. Can we get any get the exact cause for skew and want to know how to check conveyor vibration.

Magyart is on the right track. Lots of variables. Can you post a photo of the skewed part? But also, is it skewed in the paste before reflow? How many inductors are doing this per board? Lastly, indicate on the photo the direction of travel in the

Hello Ameen, It is needed a moderate impact bump to generate skew. Even blowing of the fans generally cannot generate serious skew -unless the pads apertures are not suitable for the components size/weight. You can try for yourself. Take a board wi

Most of the time, we have very few skewed parts so I feel comfortable about the processes in general. However once in a while, often enough to throw off the first pass yield, we will get a few boards with a lot of skewed parts. By skewed I mean that

We are experiencing a fair amount of skewed components, mostly 0805 resistors and capacitors, during the reflow process. We have pretty much ruled out the pick-n-place and have determined that it may be happening because of variables at the paste scr

| Has anyone had any experience or data using vibration during the reflow process. | We introduced a vibration device attached to the fixed rail on a Vitronics reflow oven. The reason was to prevent skewing on large PLCC devices. The process worked v

Your link doesn�t work. It gives an application timed out message. Pads on the board that are too large or spaced improperly for the component usually cause skewing. Tombstoning and skewing are first cousins. Look here: http://www.smtinfocus.com

If you have a board that you've run several times, now you run it and like before all settings are the same, but now you have 0603's randomly skewed or an inch or so away from their intended pad (as if popped up in the air), or an occasional 7343 cap
