Hi Jon, Thanks for the dimensions. It is quite larger than CSM66, so I haven't got chance to buy 84. You are very "lucky" because you "only" had to cut a bigger hole for it. My workshop is "under" the ground, in the cellar,so I had to explode my mac

No, raising the solder pot temperature to 800*F will not affect affect your solder alloy. We expect that you had a fairly high level of intermetallic compound generation, but most of that would be included in the fairly high dross generation that ha

We had the same trouble. We baked our boards out but the delamination continued very random. One board would be fine and the next was a nasty explosion of delam. Switched material - no problems since. I never found out the technical reason behind

I had the lurching issue...turned out I needed to readjust to cog wheels on the exit side of the oven. The cogs had slipped, and the chain was actually getting caught in the teeth...to the point that as the wheel turned, the chain would stay in it i

While I agree with Realchunks, the joints do have to at least have to hold the parts on the board. So your test might have had another purpose but it would also be testing if they had enough mechanical strength to hold the components on. Drop an unre

"Better" means different things to different users. When we decided to upgrade I thought about a TP9 too but frankly it couldn't do much more than the Quads we already had. It just did it with a bigger footprint. We got a Topaz because we needed hi

Classic! That went into my favorite sites. Even funnier is when they misspell the buzzwords on their e-mails and Power Point presentations. Had a noob here that not only had misspelled director "Drector" in his e-mail title, but then copied it to

We had a vent block up not too long ago ourselves. Saw multiple solderjoints, especially on fine pitch micros, that looked like they had alligator toes. We solder bump, so it was obvious that area didn't get hot enough to liquify the solder and hav

I have not had problems with ENiG panels, but they were made state side. We had Trace Labs cross-section them and found no problems. Whats this about yellow nails? Mine are full of grease from constantly having to fix the Jeep. I would try to pop my

Hello Could somebody inform us about real consumption of lead free solder alloy SN100C on your wave solder process. We do not use some antiaxidant and had had alloy consumption about 1 kg per hour. What is your experiance? All sugestion will be well
