Well that doesnt sound very promising. What im going to do is make sure these two boards I just coated (with the RTV already cured) will be used in house only. In the future we will do any conformal coating operations before potting with whatever mat

As Emil says, it's 100% the glue! Your paste is not designed to hold parts on at wave solder. Reflow is MUCH hotter than glue, so I doubt you're not adequately heat-curing it. Possibly, the glue cure is "too hot" and maybe making the material brit

If you have concerns, you can look at the datasheet for each component or contact one of their application or materials engineers and find out what the components are rated for...process-wise. IE, how long can I be in the oven with this part, at what

With 0402 components becoming more common today outside of the telecommunications industry, our company is qualifying equipment and processes for an upcoming product incorporating 0402s. Having used 0402s in a previous position, I am planning a DOE o

Wow! I'm going to apply for something at Desiccare, I think... I found similar things about desiccants, but mostly material related stuff, also some concerns more about the indicator card than the desiccant. Nothing conclusive. At the moment, I

we worked out that the wave soldering cassettes Duratstone material takes alomst 35 degree away from the surface of the pcb, and the speed is already too slow it should be over 1.0 - 1.8 meters a minute but its now already 82 cm a minute, in order to

Is there a need for a simple application to merge a bill of material with the xy placement data into a single (or top/bottom) files for machine programming? ie. add a part number column to the xy data, including "N/A" for parts not found in the BoM?

My company has been having issues with a lot of solder balls, solder splash, and flux balls all over a specific board. Now this is one of the only companies that require us not to clean our boards after our work is finished but this is also causing a
