Contact the adhesive manufacturer, or their website. Most adhesive suppliers offer two cure options - one with a belt oven profile and one with a box oven profile. The belt oven is usually a ramp and plateau of 120-150C for approx 2 minutes. The b

Have you had bad experiences? We have a paste checker on line, and all components are verified at receiving and again when loaded on the machines. The purpose of AOI ( for us anyway ) is to reduce the time spent after reflow visually checking the b

I am also interested in one of Anthony's questions....How is this different from other "similar" products. After having some experience with similar technology, I ask.... 1. How does your initial set-up address the fact that you are conforming to a

Just had a similar phenomenon 2 days ago. May relate to your issue --- or not. Like you, I did a once over looking for mechanical obstruction & couldn't find any. Ran a thermal profile on the offending PCB & all checked out. Looked in end of oven

Tough. 0402 capacitors are more prone to tomb stoning than resistors. Tailor your process to the 0402 and let the other stuff fall where it falls. Search the fine SMTnet archives for discussion on tomb stoning. Consider: * Changing paste. * Apply

What we did: *Slump-dot diameter and height as a function of time *Print Speed-Vary speed, measure slump and missing/defects *Green Strength-We quantifiably measured tack vs time and we placed components and measure skew by SVS *Cure profile sensitiv
