Our customer ask us how many repair (component removal, change and soldering) we guaranty for SMT components on our printed wiring board. We all have the number "3" in mind but we can't justify it by a standard. We can't reply "state of the art". Doe

It has been my experience that when all conditions are as they are supposed to be there should be zero or very little deflection. When you start placing components with pick and place equipment that does not have a Z pressure sense, you run the possi

Dear Mike, As you might have noticed from the labels on the dry bags, the maximum floor life is specified by the component manufacturer and it can range from 1 year (level 2) down to a few hours after mandatory bake (level 6). This limit is based o

This guideline is actually in the IPC/JEDEC standard J-STD-033, May 1999 (although it is not spelled out very clearly, thus the current confusion in the industry). The technical reason is that moisture diffusion is a very slow process. Once parts ha

Some manufacturers put very strong glue, the wider the part is so increases the glue strength. May sound funny but the only thing that worked was attaching a fishing weight to the tape, need to play a little until you find the correct size. The only

Trying to place PTH components with an SMT machine is possible but maybe not plausible. Would you have to buy specialized tools and equipment for the job ( gripper nozzles ). Are the machines you have capable. i.e.. Would you need camera modification

Could be. I am making overprint to achieve proper amount of solder paste inside hole. Now I am trying to reduce maximum overprint and compensate it with step - up stencil. This could reduce effect that some particles of solder paste are not gathering

During the solderin of a double side board, how can I calculate the maximum weight of a component I can put in the first side to avoid the component fall down in the oven (depending on the soler join surface) ? Are there some rules ?

Can anyone tell me the formula/method to determine the amount of weight that solder's surface tension can support. (ie: Maximum weight of components soldered onto a bottom side of a board during a top side reflow on a Paste/Paste process). Thanks, S
