We aware of the extend time for cure, and in the CA activity we tried plasma etch and expose the sample to the current process, a screen test of 4 cycles -50C to 125C and the CC held in place. Std IPC tape test passed in current process and modifie

Tape test to check adhesion and multiple point thickness test - each board has 5 points per side documented for thickness testing & we measure pre & post coating thickness with an electronic meter. Also temp & humidty are also logged, and alarms go o

(or just some static-safe foam tape) I need to seal a wire terminal block to a board for conformal coating purposes. Currently we glue it to a shim and glue the shim to the board (yuck), but I want to use die cut gaskets if I can make it cost effec

I've recently been placed in control of operations of our SCS conformal coat sprayer and I must eliminate problems with wicking of humiseal 1b73 into surface mount connectors while also trying to minimize masking as much as possible. We use a 55:45

I'll chime in here as well. If you have adhesion problems, 90% of the time it's contamination on the substrate (soldermask, flux residues, cleaner residues, etc.). Like Dave said, omega meter is a test for gross cleanliness, and it's OK for process

It's a Spectrum Technologies Sienna 300 Series. The main down fall is that you can only program x and y (as far as I know). By that I mean you can't do circles or diagonals. Only squares and rectangles or shapes with only vertical and horizontal s

I'm working on bringing up a new conformal coat process/workcenter and have a few questions I'm hoping someone might have experience with. Right now we're manually spraying both coating materials (1B31 and 1A33 from Humiseal) using HVLP guns. I run

Ashok: You should select and use low residue tapes. But ya know, ya go out and research a great tape and if yer not careful, the buyer will second source ya and (surprise) ya got residues again. We have found that Lemme say this about Katon tape

Ashok: You're still goin' down that ol' ESD road aren't ya bud? Why do you need the boards to be dry? Conformal coating? Hey wait a minute, are you one of those no-clean people? Er zis related to the Kapton tape res fandango? Anywho, be careful
