I have read somewhere of a ratio of component weight vs. surace contact area rule for double reflow soldering. This ratio is the maximum weight vs. surface tension to hold a component on during the second reflow. With this number, a person could weig

David, There was a thread going on the IPC TechNet about exactly the same thing... The ratio that was posted is: Less than, or equal to 30-grams per square inch Which means if you weighed a part and it is 30-grams, you'll need .033" of surf

Based on work I have been doing recently the most common reasons for component loss is board flexture and vibration on the reflow process. If parts do not reflow then weight is not an issue. There is a video on double sided reflow and PIHR from the S
