woow, slow down hot rod, hey davef, you are alright by me, good to see some one out there that has hands on experience rather than a theory nut.... any how, you need a top of the line profiler, super gold mole, or Kic.... these truly are the best and

Our past experience with Frost and Sullivan is that they derive most of their data from interviews with the subject companies and press releases. That puts them a half a notch above asking the sales reps for info (except with F&S, the total won't be

Why a clean room? Or do you mean an environmental room to control temp and RH? Any way, to answer you question, your wave and oven can care less about RH. Just don't keep them at 100% RH. Static can easily be handled with lower RH and proper grou

Most likely there is movement during reflow. How about conduction oven over convection oven for reflow? This is a small PCB with the LED sitting on a Flex-Rigid extension from the PCB. I was thinking if the stencil aperature for the LED was to be cu

You printer is not solely designed for printing solder paste. This is why some of the options you would never use for paste appear in the menu. You may actually be printing overlays or yes, even t-shirts. This is why you may want to flood/print, prin

Found the issue. The footprint is incorrect. The inductor completely shields the paste from heat. Slid the inductor on the pad to expose the pad and paste, and perfect solder joint. This part was a last minute design change with a larger body.

Hi Evtimov, Thanks for your response - Coverage of Paste on the pad is 85 % (By considering window & outer area), Let me revert back after PAD design vs Recommendation verification.

Can someone explain the difference between solder "fines" and solder balls? Is there an official specification where "fines" are defined? What is the spec for "fines"? I consider "fines" individual unmelted metal spheres that are found in solder

I am a Manufacturing Engineer working on a new bid. Please help with my question about a new process that I am unfamiliar with: The Assy that we are quoting involves a SMT PCA that is soldered to an aluminum chassis. All surfaces of the chassis that
