Hi Pete We have a Black and Decker Power File and have mounted it on a bench in an enclosure to capture the hazardous dust. We used a hopper (usually used for guttering!) with a wire mesh over the top (static reasons) mounted in the bench top inside

You appear to have two problems working against you at once. One is component lead corrosion that the no clean flux isn't aggressive enough to remove. Do a simple dip and look test. Flux the leads of a component and dip it into the molten solder for

Hello: BACKGROUD: SMT components soldered on the top-side of boards that also require wave soldering have the potential to reflow during wave soldering. Reflowing these components during wave soldering is not good. It can cause cold joints, opens

Big BIG BIGG wave with a lot of preheat capability both top and bottom. You may need to exceed the standard "100 C" top side preheat to 120C or so (be aware of any topside SMT going into reflow over the wave). A spray fluxer with very fine atomizati

It appears to me, that there is a conflict between European and American management. I remember the headlines, when Mercedes bought themselves into Chrysler, that the American top managers earned almost three times as much as the Germans. I�m not s

Bob, I don't have 300 stencils only about 83 so my way might not be practical for you. This is what I have done. 1. I have racks that hold 20 stencils, 10 top 10 bottom. 2. Number the racks and have them in order. 3. Made a number system for locati

Hi, What's really interesting about your photos is there is solder paste on top of the component. If it was blowing the solder off the board you would see solder paste splatter away from the component. But the solder paste is on top of the compon

Anyone have problems wave soldering white tin finish? We are an ems and our customer provides us the pcb's. SMT and TH components on the board. SMT is fine but when we wave solder, wetting to top side is very poor (solder only flows half way up). We
