There are 2 reasons for wanting to change to an enclosed print system: - Reduce solder paste usage. (We run a high volume application so any reduction in paste scrap is a big money saver to our company.) - Improved print quality. (Ours is a non-rew

We agree. We consider mounting holes and press fgit socket pads to be "critical contact areas." Consider taking steps to prevent the production of such solder splats on your gold to help elimate gold rework. We discussed this previously here on SMTn

Bill Our suggestion removing small QFN is: * Heat the board be from the bottom side using a convective heater. * Use a hot gas or air on the top side of the component. A good starting point is air velocity of 15 to 20 liters per minute. * Select a no

I'm in the same boat and have to pay a little more for the standards I insist on having. You just have to work on your sales pitch a little to convince the powers-that-be that you need it. Just tell them the difference is about $50k/year in scrap and

Hello, you will probably need more temperature. Notebook - probably the board is designed to transfer more heat(insude layers all copper). Tell us more about the problem you have and something about the board. what exactly is your problem? You can't

All that they are telling is important (variants in the process), what you can do in a fast way is: change the component for a new one (date of manufacture / other supply - if you have); change the component (test - same package but other specificati

I told a friend this problem, and he also thinks the problem is the component, and suggested a different solder paste (more acid), maybe you can ask your supplier for a sample and orientation. Until there I think you have to rework if its only one co

We always bake our loaded boards before any BGA rework is done. 12 to 16 hours at 100 c. We have had incidents in the past on loaded boards where 125 c has melted parts and the occasional low temp BGA trays. 100 c has proven safe for the past 10 y
