Hi, I off center idea we used when we started. Get a pasta cooker, and put in vapor phase fluid, and then use that. Place the product in the bottom of the inner pot, and then heat on a small hot plate. When the vapor cloud gets high enough and the

90% of the battle with thermal profiling is your thermocouple attachment. That is Process Engineering 101. It's just like painting your house. The masking and prep work will make or break the end result. KIC did a DoE on which thermocouple attach

Hi. In the past years I had made dozens of PCBs but now I am trying to get a professional finishing on them. The main problem is oxidation of the copper traces. Basically I use the silkscreen method to make the pattern in both layers and then etch. L

I would suggest you do the following: get a sample / scrap board that you will be reflowing, attach thermocouples at various locations on the board, send the board to APS or whomever. Ask them to run a profile based on your solder pastes manufactur

Guys, If there are any specifications or ciriterions for solder paste deposition thickness and volume evaluation. For example, QFP (0.5 mm pitch), 6~8 mils, 3000 mil^3 PLCC: 8~10 mils, ... . . Thanks in advance. Best Regards,

First, let me say what I always say: a good chem-etched stencil will print fine pitch. Chem-etch brings trap to the side walls because its a physical by-product of the process. Because they are less expensive you can add electropolish and still save

$100K for this entire line. We are thinking of getting a Chinese made reflow oven that looks pretty good at $25K. Also, we need to deposit solder using a dispenser as stencil printing will be reserved only for higher volume boards. It will not be pra

Dear All, I'm looking for the complete SMT equiment line (solder printer, P&P, Reflow) uses for the small volume production line. I happen to know that Manncorp and APSGold can provide the complete ST line, but I haven't hear and use these machine be

Steve: Continuing with Dan�s thinking, generally, "poor release" (paste hanging-up in the stencil holes) could have three main (or combination of) causes: 1 Equipment: Stencil is too thick. Specifically, your 0.006 should be OK, providing you don�
