Would you consider a light reflow pallet on second side holding the connectors in place and preventing them from moving?

No to redesign, no to glue dispensing and no to pallets. Now you should change gravity ...or pray :) I am interested to see what other solution you can come up with.

Hahaha we already praying.. There is always a solution for any problems.. That's why am trying to do brainstorming with you all.. It's a pleasure to share ideas

I see that the connector has plastic alignment pins. Is there any reason you can squirt a drop hi-temp "Crazy" glue into each hole, after the bottom side assembly and before printing the top side?

we have already taken this idea into consideration but as a plan b .. like i said before, we are producing large series of cards, then the lights reflow pallet will disrupt the normal production process (storage in the racks, convoys, machine screen

we are obliged by customer specifications that there will be no glue despensing process on the production line.. also that the glue dispensing process is very complicated for this case .. we could have glue splash on top surface of pcb so that will

=0.08g/mm2, make it less than 0.08. And maybe the connector gravity center location is a cause also. If no machine issue (vibration, wind,etc), and you cannot change the design/material then you can use SMT glue to fix the connector during reflow.

OK, you can't glue, Pallet Guys pallets are out the door, dual line reflow prevents from any lower temp solder paste.... Do you have a 3D printer? Are there parts underneath the connector in question? Measure the PCB thickness, pint out a custom hold

Hi there , I agree with phil .. but we cannot change the architecture of the card to mount the connector on the 2nd side. Steve , we are producing large series, so we can't manually ship bond the connector .. for the moment, we cannot invest in a gl

To predict whether or not a first pass part is going to come off during the second pass you need to calculate the ratio of weight/soldered surface area. According to a couple of different sources that I've dug up, maximum is around 44 grams/in.^2. I
