It all depends on what type of board you need to solder. If your boards are small in size and low thermal mass and your conveyor speed requirments are normal, then I'd say the OmniFlo 7 will do the job. It has a max zone temp setting of 280C. The cur

Hello All, Can somebody direct me to a facility or school or even a business that can offer an x-ray course for Class 3 electronic circuit board population interpretation, as in BGA ball acceptance, connector solderability fill acceptance etc.? Some

Hello everybody, according to your experience, what is the allowed or suggested (by Suplliers,or Standards,or best pratics) shelf life for components (SMD/PTH) from fabbrication date to the soldering date ? Let's consider best case when compon

Hi Rob, I had tried printig anisotropic conductive adhesive as a replacement for solder paste. Following were my finding. Adv: - curing temp is around 120-150C as compared to 217C (Pb-free) solder. - good electrical conductivity, since it is usual

Davef, You have a good question. If we had perfect design engineers out there that would use the proper component spacing and not put SMT parts between and around thru-hole parts - glue and wave would work perfectly. I have done this with great su

Pete, I was speaking to the Electrovert/Speedline/Camalot/Gemini factory tech's and App Eng's. I now have new machine files which slowed the pumps down to half speed, I have several needles....all of which still will not place a small enough dot.

Hi does anyone have any experience of running Sn 99 Cu0.7 Ag 0.3 solder in their waves? Also is there any reliabilty data available? I think it may also be called C7A3. All I can find is a brief mention in a table in IEC 61190-1-3 2004, and on a pr

After reflow AOI makes sense because it has the highest coverage of the defects. Problems like tombstone, lifted pins, open solder joints, some shorts and insufficient solder you will not find before oven. I would also not agree with the statement th

KT, What sort of delta T are you getting? This does sound a bit odd. TCs are in EXACTLY the same position on each board? Something I only recently found out - according to Mark Cannon from ERSA re profiling, that you may wish to consider. 1.TCs sho

Hello PMD Don't feel like that, we live with these MPM's. And we have over 10 years experience. Also never mess with the down stop on any MPM and you will be better off. Most of mpm's machines have a down stop of .0750 and it should never be cha
