| I have boards coated with Humiseal 1B73. At a late point mfg. site we need to remove a series of 0603 resistors for optioning purposes. I have been trying to determine the fastest, easiest way to re-coat the pads after removal. Drying time of the c

Using convection type reflow we observed following problem: One ball of a 313-PBGA appears to be dewetting. This happens randomly, i.e. no specific ball location, failure rate is rather low (3-4%), but since there are 12 PBGAs on one board the failu

Dennis, The solder paste is responsible for holding the component in place pre-reflow. Several things to look at: Is the paste accurately printed on the pad? If not, there may not be enough of the component in contact with the paste to provide adiq

Hi Jacqueline! The dreaded white residue huh? YUCK! This seems to be a ongoing issue...probably because there are many different things that can possibly cause this. There's a real good article about the different causes of this problem at Kest

6 deg is std angle. Some machines have option to adjust angle from 5 to 7. Maybe yours does. If you have an Electrovert wave machine you can get the Omega option. This option vibrates the wave to reduce surface tension. It does a nice job on rectangu

Hello Sid: i don't know where you bought the machine. the central support system is an addition part, it is specially designed to prevent the PCB board from bowing. i know that the wave soldering machine which made before did not include this useful

Hi Myriam, I think we may need some more information. Is the Electrolytic (Aluminum) Capacitor placed more than once per board? If so, are all locations twisting? This would typically be caused by a thermal imbalance that could be design induced. (u

I have met the same issue before. 1st possible root cause: The dimensions of reel's each chip inserting hole are a little bigger. You need to see if the turn over issue are all happened in the same vendor's reel material. 2nd possible root cause: The

Here is some food for thought. Try to answer these questions yourself and I am sure you will see huge improvement. Reasons: - Bad PCB design - Plating-uneven HASL cause more than OSP Au/Ni or Silver - Poor paste and print quality - uneven paste ca
