I'm trying a second time to post this very important message, to me, concerning Air-Vac's following creation. Does any own and use this stuff successfully to remove solder from 20 layer and up MLB's with .020" diameter holes? Also, is any of the adve

We have recently had problems with bare boards coming in too thick. I would like to know how to properly specify the minimum and maximum thickness using the 13949F and IPC 4101 specs. (We currently use "MATERIAL: GFN 0620 C1/C1 A2A per MIL - P - 1394

| Hi | I have been conducting my first reflow profiles. Most of the texts that I have read suggest soldering the thermocouples to a populated pcb. I am finding this very difficult. I have been using a high melting point (Sn5 / Pb95) solder and the

Since we are on the topic, What we do over here, is to get SMT Technical to machine pick&place "sample component layouts" onto double-sided tape, which in turn is placed onto an actual PCB... QA will take that double-sided tape sample, and using an

There are ledgitimate reasons for checking furnace calibrations, but let me clarify what that is. 1. TC's are not necessarily calibrted. Not unless you need "absolute" accuracy. TC's operate against a (non-linear) standard +/- a tolerance. Most

With DIP type components, a sub-par fluxing method (foaming a no-clean), and a chip wave where one is not needed are formulas for bridging and insufficient wetting. If you have SMD's on the wave solder side of the board greater than 0603, and no SOT
