Thanks, Chunks. Your first post was correct, it turned out to be the battery. That is that problem solved. Unfortunately I have now got an error message saying Flux Management Failure. Is this just a coincidence? It sounds like something to do with t

Material, fumes, cured or uncured, all are suspect. Silicone gets on an operator's hands, that operator handles components ( even a day or more later ) silicone is transferred to the solder connections = contamination. Process and workcell control

You don't mention any particular IC or manufacturer or marking method. However, most IC marking is done with lasers these days. The laser actually alters the encapsulation so the only way to erase the marking is to remove the encapsulation. Otherwise

My first thought is that your roof exhaust blower is dead and that these boards are the only no-clean boards you build but that's probably not the case. To start from the beginning, though, are all of your blowers operating normally (in the oven an

Dear SMT Manufacturer, As moisture is eliminated as the cause then solder paste volume will probably be the main contributing factor. More paste means more chance of solder balls and more flux fumes that need to be evaporated to reduce voiding. Even

In order to service your wave solder machine safely, the following needs to be understood. Ladling dross out of the machine and putting it in into a coffee can or similar is not safe and puts operators and other employees at risk. Protecting the se

We are installing a new reflow oven and I have been told that we do not need to vent the exhaust out through the roof since we have a false ceiling. All that is required is to vent above the false ceiling and that the air exchange is great enough tha

I agree that something has to be done with the lead waste but I believe that a recycling program is a better alternative to lead-free. Isn't silver more toxic? How about the venting of alternate alloy fumes, let alone the effects on operators. I say

I believe you'll need to have fume extractors for wave and oven to clean the exhaust: http://www.solderfume.co.uk/index.html http://www.allerair.com/air-purifiers/candi.html http://www.impell.com/main/index.cfm I believe its state regulated as fa

Find out if you can separate the dehumidifier controls from the heating/cooling controls, without adding an air handler. Otherwise I think you'd need to add a dehumidifier that runs independantly. Don't forget that system capacity has to be rated fo
