Hello there: Could anyone help: 1- In a double wave wave solder M/C, is possible to completely eliminate the second wave without affecting the quality of the solder joints? 2-From a quality control prespective, what is the minimum accepted length of

No you're not stupid, they will melt if the top of the board gets real hot. I was lucky most likely in that ours were usually off of the board surface. anything that will hold the weight material will work. Now that I think about it my shot bags w

For some as yet unkown reason, we have started to have some boards sag and go under the wave. The boards are surface mount top side and conventional components wave soldered. We have checked the wave hight and both the profiles on the wave solder and

Anyone with selective wave experience ? I'm buying the Selective Wave machine and trying to workout the comparison matrix. Can someone tell me what criteria should I look at when listing down the matrix ?...things like, min clearance to the high prof

Hi, I'm an SMT refugee working in component manufacture - hey, times are hard! I've been asked by a customer to test some of my parts at high temperature on the wave - up to 360 deg Celsius. I've checked my wave and it's only capable of getting up

Jason, where on the board is your connector?, front / back / middle? and where it on the PCB that you don't have issues with? Thief pad's are basically dummy pad's taht you have after the last set of pin's on the component are are used to draw the

I thought this would be a good place to post to get input from the "trenches" as to what is going to be the next consumer fad? It seems like the market is in need of something new to instigate future consumption. I work for an electronic component

Recently I have started refurbing my companies extremely neglected Hollis TDL wave solder machine. After doing a general cleaning, de-fluxing, and de-greasing I have all the mechanical components back in working order. What i am left with is the elec

Selective soldering machines are a good way to "finish automation", if the design of the PCB is conducive to the application with just a few components to solder. Your points are good. A decision matrix for selecting a machine might also include:
