We are using semi-circular land pattern and 0.004" smaller appertures on screen. With stable rising slope (max:2.6degC/sec)we have not experienced any tombstonning so far.

I learn from Senju Metal, they have a formula with certain percent of Ag and Cu can elimate the tombstone. The hint is the eutectic only one reflow and the new material have two reflow. Please let me know your result. Rgds. Dason

Chris, is right! Pad geometry is one of the biggest factors of tomb-stoning. Check Pad size against parts size.

THE PROBLEM IS DEFINETLY CAUSED BY INCORRECT PAD DESIGN. A FRIEND DID A INVESTIGATION ON TOMBSTONING AND HAS THE CORRECT SIZES.HE CAN BE E-MAILLED AT NMANSON@AFTE.COOKSON .COM OR TEL. 0094 1355 276 500

I FOUND THAT ONE OF THE MANY REASONS FOR TOMBSTONING COMPONENTS IS MOISTURE IN SOLDER PASTE. ONE WAY TO CONFIRM THIS IS TO CHECK FOR EXCESIVE SOLDER BALLS AROUND THE PART IF THEY ARE PRESENT THEN YOU MAY HAVE A HUMIDITY PROBLEM. GOOD LUCK!!! JAKE

PC: I guess you talk about something called tombstoning. About causes and adequate countermeasures you will find enough material when you browse the archive with this search item. Try also "tombstone". Good luck Wolfgang
