Thanks everybody for the answers. I already chose 3 differents solder paste brands. And, how many boards it's necessary to perform these evaluation tests to have a reliable result? 20, 50, 100 boards?? Thanks.

2-3 weeks? wow! I've had stencils last over a decade and only needed replacing because the adhesive holding the mesh dry rotted and crumbled. Of course build volumes were in the order of 50-100 per year. Just goes to show there is no easy answer f

Do you bond with Al or gold wire? What happens if the Ni is over 150 microinches? Thickness of nickel is one those things that we have not been consistent with. The industry seems to pretty much universally call for 100-200 microinches. Our old board

SWAG/Russ, How do you guys handle the left overs that the surface mount operators are left with at the end of the job? Do they discard the excess material or return it to stock? We are a small CM and have runs similar to SWAG. 50-100pc, high mix. We

Previously my company manufactured simple 8-10 component through hole parts. Now we have put a mixed technology line in place and are building parts with 50-100 components each. With our older units, functional test and simple visual inspection was

We have fought with cut-tape way too much. It's always a bad idea. We've tried a couple methods/devices for manual splice with limited success. Before you look into this I would ask them if they could supply you cut tape qty's inslusive of fairly

We are building a plasma diagnostic to monitor MHD phenomena in tokamak. As part of the development, we need high-voltage, high-power RF capacitors to tune and match an inductive load. This application is similar to a small induction heater, with t

I'm thinking of buying a graphics tablet for processing work - not a heavy duty amount. Can anyone recommend a tablet and give me an idea what I should look out for? I use Lightroom, Photoshop, and Illustrator to do some sketching, learn logo design
