We run a Mydata high mix, low volume line. You can handle strips with either the Agilis feeders (losing the first 5-10 parts) or by placing the strip on the Y or tray wagons. For cheap parts like resistors, capacitors, some diodes and small ICs, ou

| I am looking for a rule of thumb regarding the maximum ramp standard components (chip capacitors) can tolerate without failure during the reflow process. The standard seems to be 3C\second, but this figure is generally derived from the average ram

John: It's easy to put parts in the wrong place!!! Isn't it? Starting at the beginning: check the part at incoming inspection ... measure the value upon receiving the part, if it's possible. Verify the marking on the part. Next: Prevent things f

We have an electronic circuit with a miniature stepper motor, quartz crystal, Electrolytic capacitor,chip resistors and few smt LEDs. The PCB material is CEM1 with SMOBC and HALS finish. This circuit is assembled in a plastic casing and goes in to a

We have a PCB rework dilemma involving a reflow profile. This is a SAC305/Low Solids (aka no clean) process where we are currently hand soldering (5) components that were DNP. The boards have an acrylic coating and we take off the acrylic at the par

Responding to your questions ... RELIABILITY OF 1% SILVER SOLDER PASTE: It�s as good as the next solder paste, all other things the same. Look at your back articles by Jennie Hang in SMT magazine. I want to say she wrote an article on the topic i
