Thanks for all the responses. I do agree with what was said, and can certainly see reasons not to try. I'll write a little more about what we do. We are a defense contractor, and as I mentioned very high mix, low volume. We only have 1 SMT line.

Hi Dennis, It is all dependant on what you state for the class of product i.e. Class 3 is the top end acceptance criteria used mainly in Aerospace and Military. You have 2 terms you need to grasp to avoid confusion. 1. Acceptance Criteria 2. Target

No idea, could be a weird translation error, but its certainly something I have seen . For an FLX they just ask for this "5-6 bar, clean, dry, oil free, filtered 2 µm, connection diameter 8 mm", 40litre/min Personally I would go with a mo

We just bought a new Heller 1800 EXL reflow oven for reflowing SMT boards. We us a low temp RMA solder paste with 2% silver. Everything we build is to IPC Class 3 specifications. We have approximately 600 different types of circuit boards we build
