HI, We currently have two SMT lines, one running leaded products and the other lead-free. There is a recommendation to combine the two to increase the line capacity. What do you think are the pros and cons, is there a risk in contamination ot the

Three ideas for you: 1) Make sure nozzle tips are clean. 2) Check coplanarity of leads to bottom of body. If leads are above body, it could be the are not contacting paste well. 3) Investigate static charge in the parts caused by the feeder or

Hi all, I'm working in Military Production and then, We have an exception about RoHS (LEAD FREE), but, because we use "normal" components, in this moments, a lot of components have LEAD FREE terminations, and we think that after of 1st July, we wo'nt

Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of IPC-A-610 D on hand, however, I believe in IPC-610, this �floating height� between lead and pad has no maximum specification restriction. As long as there is no voiding, it is still acceptable for all 3 classes.

I'm sorry, Dave - I didn't make myself very clear. Yes, this space (not really a "gap") is filled with solid solder. For instance, if you place a gull-wing component in solder paste, after reflow, there will probably be a thin film of solidied solder

Hey - remember the evaluation of VOC-Free fluxes that I promised a couple of months ago? well, I finally scrounged up the time to remove the propreitary (board name and number) info from the report. So it's ready. I posted it in the SMTnet library

1. Is the high RH environment consistently at 72% RH and 21.4 degrees Celsius? No, over the past 2 weeks I have recorded the highest at the moment: 67% RH at 22.6 degrees C and lowest (it is Spring not summer yet): 31.9% RH at 19.0 degrees C. Or d

From the picture you present, it is a pin in paste part with pin length 2.2mm (a good length for 1.6mm PCB thickness), and seems the pin tilted and touch on PCB surface, thus causes up-part. Sorry I cannot image pin tilted not before placement but i
