Steve , I agree with all the responses you have received. Randy Villeneuve is absolutly correct in all of his assesments and I would consider him an expert with the process , Gris is correct about adding a "heat sink" to the process complicating pr

They're IR, bottom side only. Frankly wave solder is not my forte (there are those that would claim nothing is), but I've personally been tasked with developing a process to do reliable, high volume bottom side SMT, so I'm drawing a lot from the tec

Sorry I have just started working in this industry so I am not as familiar with everything. The probelm is with the Product shorting because of small pieces of metal stretching accross two leads of an IC. This could be a result of faulty equipment?

| R&D is currently designing a board with smt components on both sides of the board. They are adding a 16 pin IC Gull wing. on the bottom side of the board. I have asked for only caps and resistors to be placed on the bottom side. Is there a recommen

Thank you all very much for the responses. The solder is eutectic and the problem, as far as I can tell, has been around before I was here, 2+ years. The flow machine is a treiber with 2 bottom preheaters and 1 top. The solder pot temp is 500F +/-4F

Just starting and already responsible for product quality and machine adjustment? Wow, you poor bastard. Ok, I will assume this problem happens on the bottom side of the board with a thru-hole IC. The short occurs on the side that doesn't have the

The Contamination has proven to be pretty random, lots of stainless steel though in fact two cases in the past two days. As far as I know all machinery is cleaned regularly as well, even the stencil washer itself. The boards we make are 90% (at l

Today's regular Sn-Pb paste chemistries are designed to run at higher peak temperatures ensuring that your lead-free alloys will coalesce with your regular Sn-Pb solder. That being said, it is do-able to solder both types in one oven. Generally, wit
