Im with Pete, Zero defects. We have high defect rate for many reasons. No line tech, operators set up and run then when QA reports defects engneers are called. Not to make people mad but our process engneers are lacking practical experance to fix pro

What exactly was the motivation to migrate to 5 separate (but equal) part numbers? Am I to understand that you had (for example) a chip resistor of given specs under p/n "xyz123", used on 5 separate customers assemblies and now you have isolated tha

This has always been a big debate on what is better. Few things to consider before getting into number of zones. What is the throughput and cooling requirements? Throughput is a direct relation to length of heating zone. Longer heating length

I'm looking for advise on setting up a prototype station for smt (we are currently outsourcing smt production, but have a need for rapid in house prototyping). The station must be able to handle only single sided boards with components no smaller th

Sorry Pete (and others), they do have em'. Back side of the oven. Open the doors with the power supply switch and it's right next to the power relay. Little digital ones on the Omni Flo series. Nope, our company is selling the ovens and several i

For now, on this first board, we will be reworking components such as 0805 and 1210 size caps and resistors, along with SOT-23 and SC-70 size packages. We might eventually get into BGAs. This board will most likely be a double-sided board, probably

The hasl joint looks fuller (and is easier to inspect)because it has more solder volume. Think about it. Your pre-plating your board with solder (before you add more solder). I doubt your getting 0.3 mils of hasl.....probably more like 1.3 to 3.0

If followed, would the following strategy meet the requirements of IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033A; All MSD components are either exposed for less than 1/2 an hour or final reflowed within 12 hours of opening. What I mean by exposed is any time the parts are n
