This SMT process certainly makes a body want to win the $$$ and retire! We have been trying to stabalize the process and keep running into new problems. Any help would be appreciated on this issue. All pads on both sides have the same look - partial

Steve, Dason has valid points here. dun listen to what supplier's say about paste lying on the PCB pads able to be exposed at ambient temperatures for 8-24 hrs? that will never get approval for Class-3 type of customer auditors. (Would any serious

My customer is finding a blue haze on some SMT pads after processing, kind of looks like a water spot on the surface of solder joints. It requires 20x mag and very good lighting to see. We have done 2 different ionic tests and the boards pass to clas

I think medical manufacturers are more inclined to proceed with caution because they have so much more at stake when something fails out of the box, or worse yet during a code. A lot of them locally have gone outside for pcb assembly, but stayed dom

You can always add a second level of control. We used a document that lists all configuration codes that reflected these types of changed. For instance, code 001 reflects Dwg. Rev. A, and ECO A1 and DVR 4234. Code 002 reflects Dwg. Rev. A, and ECOs

Good afternoon! We have had great luck with semi-aqueous cleaners from Kyzen and Zestron, and normally recommend both of them. They both have great labs and would gladly offer their input on he cleaning of the flux residue. We make sure that these

We are building class 3 products, using no clean on wave and selective solder machines. Both processes are producing micro solder balls between the leads of through hole components. I have searched the site and haven't found any recent threads on h

Besides changing fluxes, do you have good knowledge of actual flux volumes? Do you have a micrograms per square value? Pre-heats can affect flux by burning off too soon and also not enough - therefore moisture hits the wave- how's your humidity cont

Several methods are available for singulating or extricating individual flexible circuits from a processed panel; this discussion of the topic applies to all types of flexible circuits. In general, the methods for singulating flex circuits can be bra
