When we first started we had this problem, we eliminated by longer profile (less delta T) and then ultimately chnaged pad dimensioning for 0402 away from IPC standard. i would highly recommend that you check your placement accuracy and your prof

Hey guys, Anybody having trouble with increased false contact issues in ICT after switching from lead to lead free? Our test guys keep trying to imply that the flux residues are a problem (we're using Alpha EF2202), but as the soldering process eng

in all actuality, you are both right. Alpha metals does have the toughest/hardest noclean residue that I have seen. When changing to no-clean FLUX you should run different probes. So back to square one. You're both right so who's gonna win?

Thanks for the reply. We have carefully inspected the part and solder joint after depaneling and all looks good. What is weird is if you remove the part from the board and check continuity with a meter you have a dead short. If you put on a new part

Hi Steve I had that problem before and what caused this it was the vibration of the depaneling process, without hitting any component, if the capacitor is too close to the depaneling edge chances are you are facing the same problem I had. The way how

I would like to take an informal poll on 0201 feeders. I am currently using Tyco machines and 0201 feeders for these machines have become impossible to find. I am hoping to get some feedback on other manufacturers feeders and try to modify them to fi

no...there is no retrofit kit.....but if you find some good feeders....tear into them.....make sure everything is tight....about half the time you can make the feeder work ok. Also it doesnt hurt to use only one xf nozzle in the program so that only

I had reason to check the Tyco web site today and on their home page was a very prominent sp? ad for feeders capable of handling 0201 parts. You mentioned that the ones from Tyco worked well, maybe they are back in stock. I talked to the customer

Just maybe this new diet for the guru will burn a new orifice between his cheeks which may enable him to spew his rational more clearly. His current blowhole does not seem to be working.....RLM, there may be a decision by Tyco soon to produce 0201/04
