It is great for single sided boards, but you will have to use a glue/wave process or something else for second side assemblies. Russ

We are facing SMT components No solder and solder bridging issue (Glue PCBA) at wave soldering process. Fine tuned the wave parameters improved but not able to eliminate the issue. Suspecting because of moisture pad and component leads contaminated d

Santiago can still maintain his current PTH, SMT, Reflow, Glue, Wave solder process flow and print glue with a stencil. In this, the bottom-side [contact-side] of the glue stencil requires cutting pockets that correspond with the clinched PTH leads.

If that's what you mean, here's what we call them: ROBBER PADS... Pretty close to the "thief" I guess. Those come with the design and if the wave soldering direction is not known at the time of design and/or there's no real estate limitation, the rob

Is a water-soluble flux based paste an option for the bottom side? Then you could wash the residues from the board before wave. That's the only way we've tried that process. The difficulty we had was with some disturbed joints, apparently from s

We ran doublesided SMT thru Glue and Wave process before and but faced a lot of skip solder. Then the customer told us that they have similar problem when they ran the board so what they did was they print the paste-dispense the glue- place the comp

C1: is there any gap between the pad and terminal if we place the glue? R1: Yes, there is a gap, but it is easily bridged by the amount of solder in the wave. C2: Btw, my practice to print solder pate then punch glue then PNP component and finally

We are not doing this right at the moment but I have done it with great success. Of cource it depends on your pad layout we have a 20 mil gap in between pads, we printed at 10 mil wide with a 5mil stencil. I will try to find the glue we used, I kno

I am guessing Theresa is saying when that some SMT parts are soldered (not glued) very close to some PTH parts. So close that they can't effectively mask the SMT parts and have an opening for the PTH part. At the company where I work, we've been tr

We are using a glue and wave solder process for primarily chip components. Our products do not use any fine pitch components. What would an acceptable benchmark for the placement defect rate be? 50 DPMO? 100 DPMO? 200 DPMO? Thanks in advance,
