Tom: You are right. Pre-heating is just as necessary in rework as it is in intiial production. Zephyrtronics produces an economical convective bottom side pre-heater known as an airbath. This product ramps the substrate and assembly at 2-4 degrees

Hello Spoilt... Yes it's true about the kitting being important but we also offer a component tester/verifier option for our system. The components can be tested for each insertion if you wish. The machine will not allow a component to be inserted

This massage is for clarifications on storage and handling of Moisture sensitive parts: Does chip resistors,capacitors and inductors need vacuum packing during usage life? For repacking of FPDs to limit reuse, is it necessary to use vacuum seler or s

We have seen a similar problem. Turned out to be mechanical stress on the component caused by the method of location and clamping at ICT. Where is the component located on the assembly? Poorly adjusted clamping pillars on clamshell fixtures can cause

We're not real clear about what you're trying to discuss, because most capacitors are packaged in epoxy with a solderable termination on each end. But lets throw a couple of ideas at the wall and see what sticks. If this epoxy is: * From the capaci

You could use a stepped stencil around the parts you're having issues with to add a greater paste deposit to them and not the rest, or slightly elongate the apertures and overprint, but this may lead to solder balling.

| Yes, norm it is. Look back to February 98 :discussion on this issue. Norm, That discussion does deal with palladium coated leads, but when I read your statement about silver/palladium fired terminations, I'm assuming that you're referring to
