Hi Mr Paul! Thanks for answering my previous questions. Hope you can still accommodate my other queries. This is about the acceptable criteria of PBGA defects after reflow soldering. 1.What is the allowable (min and max. ball misregistration / misal

Hello: I have not seen a published formula for calculating the package weight that can be secured by molten solder. I have seen forumlas printed for tombstoning. From that aspect, we developed the following rule-of-thumb for first-order estimates:

Performing a wetting balance test would be very difficult. The flux cored wire "configuration" is just not compatible with the methodology of the wetting balance test. If the wetting balance is a must, then you might ask the vendor for the flux for

Determining cost of rework is based on usage and application. Photonic soldering saves an average of 5 minutes per rework site in process time and may save a significant amount of labor. Depending on volume, and specifics on the application, the cos

Process control for Photonic soldering is based on the actual temperature of the component being reworked. If the desired temperature of the component for your process is 200C then that is the process temperature programmed. This is achieved by a cl

The European WEEE has issued a new (5th) version of its recommendations. In it they say that , on January 1st, 2004, they will review the status of the Pb-Free issue. There is currently NO DEADLINE for implementation. As far as a direct replacemen

Excellent question. Alloy development is relatively easy compared to flux formulation. New fluxes for Pb-Free alloys need upgrades in 2 critical areas: 1) thermal stability 2) oxygen barrier efficiency Since the Pb-Free alloys require reflow proce

If you get the price for the tray and holder from Siemens you will follow Dave's recommendation. To get the 0 point for the tray ( from where you measure the first pick position )you set up the tray on the 7th track ( type 51 ). After you sent the da

Paul, My company offers an excellent solution for low volume/high mix applications. The issue always becomes how can you reduce downtime/changeover. There are few features on our machines that allow you to do this effectively: -Load feeder

Dave: Actually, I'm located in the South Bay (Santa Clara)! Good guess. Now, for more in-depth information: So far, the distribution has been limited to one board out of 10 assembled, so far from one lot. The components assembled are exclusively
