| | There is a company selling pcb with the solder past on the pads and coated with a tacky film to hold the part during assembly. Have you heard of them and can you tell me how to contact them? | | | | Contact Matt Kehoe at 770-475-4576 or 847-740

What techniques do you use practically to reduce rearmament time of SMT line in high mix production ? There was such post on forum about it but I would like to gather all techniques in one post so everyone can add some ideas which are already applie

as most of our components are described in AML list, we can't play with that so much... so we focus on preparing the line tools/materials before the change (paste, spatulas, test pcb) - and Yes all the dressing for Juki is ready, for TCM most of the

We are currently applying solder bumps to hundreds of BCC's for rework. It is impossible to print to the PWB. It is recommended to apply solder bumps to the BCC's with 63/37 alloy making the rework faster and easier. Applying the solder bump on the

Kevin, I have done the following process to a similar problem: 1. Plug holes (even to both sides of the board) 2. Clean any flux left on the surface, especially on bottom side. 3. Apply Kapton tape to the bottom side, you mite want to apply 3 layers

In regards to your last question, - problem is failures and most think it is due to too much flux - we apply flux with a brush - amount applied depends on the operator applying it - the flux is very thick and will hold the part in place before reflo

Excess low residue flux is very dangerous to leave on your finished assembly, because it can: * Be corrosive to your solder connections * Promote dendrite growth. To prevent this, follow your supplier's recommendations on: * Applying the proper amou

Actually they are complimentary. SMOBC describes how the solder mask shall be applied (but not the type, surface finish, color, etc). The other terms describe the type of surface protective finish applied to the solderable surfaces. You need to sp

Thank you. IPC-2222 applies to rigid organic boards. It does not apply to ceramic boards. Since there is no 2222 analog for ceramic boards, I used 2222.

Would like to hear the pro and cons of using a machine like CamAlot 3800 to apply past to PCB. What has been to your experiences?
