I have the situation where we may need to use a variety of reflow temperatures. It seems that the design engineers want us to try a variety of "unspecified" pastes on the products. For example, the first PCB would be assembled using a higher temperat

Slump is a function of the particular paste you select and the temperature of the paste. Use a slump test like the one that follows to compare fluxes. Slump Test Step Process activity 1 Print paste on white ceramic substrate or microscope sli

I'am having a problem with 0805 component where right after placement, the component tend to move from the pad. I'am using 'horse shoe' aperture for 0805 component to resolve the solder beading issue. Does this 'horse shoe' contributing the skew/shif

All of what Dave says is spot on. I suspect that the most likely corresponding defects on your assemblies would be poor wetting and insufficient solder.

Solder spattering, solder balls, components "popping" off pads........ Not a serious chemical reaction, however, as replied to by KEN on 12/21/04 in a similar article: "Are you adding liquid flux? Or paste "Gel" flux? If liquid flux: This, in my m

Hi All, Just have a share with you guy. We are using T4 solder paste and also E-Stencil. We ahd try out Alpha, Kester, AIM and Qualitek. The result show Alpha had a very very heavy stack flux and can't get it clean off even by chemical

We used type 4 no clean from Aim too with this application. The price was only about 20 % more than type 3 powder. Works great. They didn't have a long leadtime, my paste was in stock. I have had simalar problems with Indium. They got too big too fas

Hi, yes may be 3d is slow but it gives you great results as it shows the height while 2d picture shows error when the paste in your machine appears to end i.e. when it see that the pad starts to appear. I don't know which company brand you prefer but

After checking some of our stencil data for the correct aspect ratio I found that a few are wrong. I would like to change them from 5mil thk to 4mil thk but do not know how much paste volume I need to keep. We are using 0201,0402, and BGA with 0.80 p
