The more that I chew the idea of outgassing through the pad theory, the less I like it. Why would something, water???, choose to outgass through the pad when moving through the solder mask would be a path of much less resistance? And why wouldn't the

I have entered my machine configuration as much as I can figure it out. I will have two machines. One with tape feeders, and the other with vibratory (tube) feeders and a waffle feeder. I've tried to set this up as best I can. But I get to the screen

I cheated on the escapement length for the SOLIC plate and got through Feeder Optimization and Generate Program without any errors. Some progress, but no I cant figure out how to the the generated program into the central controllers on the Quad IVc

So my board is called 850152, and is in a folder called BRD297XX.DIR. AutoProgram generates the pick and place program (for two heads) without error. When it does, two more "boards" appear. 850152A B1 in folder BRD2C7XX.DIR, and 850152A B2 in folder

Some progress, now stuck again. I can now generate a pick and place program for two heads that actually runs the head 1 program when loaded into the central controller of machine #1. But all attempts at getting machine #2 to run the head 2 program ha

Is there any good articles to read on solder paste? (just to see if I may of missed something) Sometimes I can not believe the people I have to work with. We had a panel with two “Quad Flat Package” (QFP) one in each of the two circuits, almost fr

For "Production" none of the above or any of this type. These little batch oven are for small labs and prototyping houses, even the best ones have only limited control over the reflow process. None of them are intended for the repeated serial use you

Hi, it is a not given clear here. I will tell you some basics about the profiling: 1. Profile stages A. Preheat - the board preheats from room temp to 130-150C depending on the paste B. Soak - 150-170(or other range depending on the paste). here th

Thermal profiling typically requires a profiling kit, this will include a thermally insulated datalogger that follows your PCB through the oven connected to a number of thermocouples which you might affix to your PCB using heat resistant tape or usin
