Dave, What exactly is the material used for making the fixtures? Upinder ====================== | I am running composite fixtures on my wave solder machine and after about 500 passes each (1 month)they are showing serious signs of wear in that the co

Yes dendrites can cause electrical shorts. The first stage of dendritic growth is a dark fern like pattern which reduce surface insulation between anode and cathode. In a more advanced stage the ferns transfer the plating metals of the conductors and

If it's not adhesive, try an ESD-type ionizer. The objective of an ionizer is to eliminate surface charge on insulators and on isolated/ungrounded conductors. Practically speaking, the action of an ionizer is to drive the voltage on the surface of a

Yes why did the Electroless Nickel layer split this is the ROOT cause. My guess is still that the resist was slightly miss registered over the copper and therefore poor adhesion of the Nickel ensued OR like I said originally the resist had contaminat

We currently use the Loctite system of Glue/stencils and are getting very good results. You may still have a height problem is you solder resist is too thick. The UK sales person is Bob.goss@loctite-europe.com & he may give you more help. The only ot

Jeff: Try this: ROSA. John�s spot on. I�ll add that it is a fluxless method that reduces the oxides in an aqueous solution. Another source of information is: Trench, M., Hillman, D., Lucey, G., "Environmentally Friendly Closed Loop Soldering,"

| Folk's, | I'm in need of some help / direction. I'm working on my thesis for a masters based on looking at the effect's of the solder resist promoting / reducing the amount of solder ball's during wave. I'm looking at thing's like colour, texture,

If you're looking for PWB cleanliness , please consider one surface treatment other than HAL (i.e HRF-heat resist flux). HRF is a very inexpensive and effective process that your board manufacturer can provide you to meet your requirement. For gold
