| | | | | Is there any problem using SMT on gold boards? 15 years ago we were told not to use gold boards, but I can't remember why. Judging by the other postings it now appears to be common. Only problem I see is that the nickel should be plated,

Hi Armin Printing equipment can be divided into two main groups; In-line and off-line. For "small" production sites an off-line screen printer should be adequate but for high out-put placement lines, where the product cycle-time is short, an in-line

Dave, Thanks for the interest. Basically, we looked at this project as a straight swap, i.e. printing the glue on the PCB using a Dek screen printer instead of our current method of dispensing glue using a Camalot dispensing machine. For the PCB we

The solder that we used is kester EM918 and Multicore LS328. Our printer machine is DEK-photon, this machine has supply below 300mm/s. the datasheet solderpaste of speed range is 30 to 150mm/s. when we produce the keyboard of the moble phone, this bo

SMTnetters: Does anyone have experience in the average programming time that they use for calculating costs on using a solder dispense and place process for QFN rework? How about average cycle time from start to finish for same? We are comparing it

That's what we do [no more than three reworks or mods]. Your "four reworks permissable" was probably based on the 55110 five thermal cycles, counting wave soldering as the first cycle. How do you plan to keep track of each of those rework actions?

Hi! Just joined the circuit. Hot Bar soldering is very reliable provided the Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) and Rigid PCB design support this technique. Some of the critical aspects that need to be considered include Stencil apperture design for sold
