Smtnet, I am looking at pros and cons for automated soldering. The application is a simple multi pin through-hole soldering on a high volume manual assembly line. The goal was to eliminate defects associated with missing solder pins which goes undet

Crystalline flux if it is really clear should not be a problem. We were using Amtech paste before and we have the same results. Sometimes we mistakenly see it as a dry joint because of the reflections from the lighting of our Metcal inspection system

What methods do you guys use for maintaining lot and/or board traceability? When I worked in med. products, we used travelers that we recorded everything on, then serialized them at the end of the build. Not as effective as up front serialization,

Based on the components mentioned, it sounds like you need a soldering station rather than a bga rework station. The equipment mentioned would allow you to rework fine pitch QFPs and BGAs. Reworking an sot-23 using one of those systems is inefficie

I represent PROMATION USA and we have several solutions for solder wire perforation: Our QUICK 372B is a stand-alone drilling station. Our QUICK 371DI is a semi-automatic hand soldering station with perforation technology. Our QUICK 300A/B is a d

We use nothing but silicones and have for at least the last 7 years. We don't have relays, but we do have motors. No issues with soldering, but our lines are constructed such that the last solder operation is a good distance from the coating or pot

Hi, I work for Nortel and here rework BGA'S we use DRS22 rework station and CRT 2000 X-ray inspection. The main problem is put again the BGA on the PCB because you need reboling the PCB and you could damage the soldermask. Talking about Air-vac is ve
