I'm spinning on this. Are we talking PTH or SMT?

Hello Jon (?) Sounds like it's just plain too hot. The Panasonic VA series specifies a maximum preheat temp of 160C for

blow holes and via holes are almost always caused by moisture and in PTH they could be moisture and improper drilled holes. If you are seeing solder balls next to the parts than I would say you have a reflow profile problem. Are you using any kind of

Yes I have a KIC and have checked the profile often. I just changed the reel of the parts that are causing problems and it went away. Now what am I suppose to say? I have made an NCMR for the parts but I'm sure they would work in an environment of

Here’s what we seem to know: * There’s a problem with voiding in the solder connections of SMT capacitors * A void is an open area caused by air or process fluid that is trapped within a solder connection * Voids are an allowable condition as long as

Does anyone else encounter problems using feeders to handle caps that are reeled up with paper tape. We are having alot of problems with vendors that are now using the thicker type (like cardboard) to use to reel up caps. Our feeders either run too
