The main problem I am having is getting the Rising slope 1-3 degrees. If I slow the conveyor down then I have too long of a reflow and if I speed it up then my ramp rate is too high. I was not sure if I need my first zones at a low temp or higher t

What is the pitch of the device and what type of flux are you using? You may eridicate the fault by using a more active flux. I assume you are flowsoldering the device as opposed to paste in hole. Do you have an air knife? If so, you could tr

There is no standard for time above liquidus. It is described rather broadly by the solder paste supplier. Reflow Zone: If the temperature is too high, boards may char or burn. If the temperature is too low, cold and grainy solder joints will resul

Hi Joshua, We ran 150K per week this way, you just need a lot of pallets. Regarding dispensing I've seen 0201 (Imperial)paste dispensed, so about 0.4ish mm dots. I'm sure the Mydata printer is also pretty high resolution too, but not too quick.

Even with the best of intentions, some lots of components just last too long. Recognize that controlled environment storage is only a delaying tactic. So when the piper come to play and baking becomes inevitable, we "repackage" components in tubes

Heat guns scare me, hot air scares me too. Just the heck of it why not apply high temp paste to the center and eutectic 63/37 standard solder to the outside pads. The outside reflows first allowing proper seating of the component and with a proper pr

I would concur about clean room problems especially with a high mix changeover environment. Paper tape is horribly dusty and just the cover tape pulling away generates a lot of dust. There was a day when everyone said paper was on the way out for

Just what is delaminationg during testing? Water washing should be sufficient to clean WS609. On the other hand, it's possible you're conveyor speed is too high to do a good job cleaning the high density areas. What kind of testing have you done to

285 is way too high a temperature for a measured part or ball temperature. It's also high for a modern convection oven set point even at reflow. If you have imagages of the problem we may be able to assist you further even on Chritmas Eve?? Bob Wil

Don't kid yourself, something has changed. * Worn stencils should produce better release and greater paste deposits than less worn stencils. * Consider inspecting the effectiveness of your cleaning process with a X10 magnifier. * Temperature in your
