| Has anyone had any experience with thermal shocking | and cracking of SMD capacitors during the rework process? | My company was advised to preheat capacitors to 125 C | at a rate of 2 C/sec before replacing them onto boards. | Would this maybe

Tom: You are right. Pre-heating is just as necessary in rework as it is in intiial production. Zephyrtronics produces an economical convective bottom side pre-heater known as an airbath. This product ramps the substrate and assembly at 2-4 degrees

Hello - I am looking for a source to supply low thermal EMF solder - can anyone provide pointers ? In the past a cadmium - lead alloy was used for this, but these are banned (RoHs) ... - the aim is to minimize thermo-couples on a very sensitive 4 lay

Hello Michel...this might be a bit of a battle finding the low thermal EMF material that you are looking for. The first one that comes to my mind is Bismuth Selenium Telluride, with either a nickel or cobalt doping agent. Silver went away from this

I assume the material you are using is black. This may sound far fetched but try using a lighter color material. Going from black to gray has given users as much as fifteen degrees F. less in heat loss.

Rob: Wouldn't that only apply to IR ovens. If using a true convection oven the color of the material wouldn't hinder output at all "Right". Don�t want to see someone spend money on new tooling if unnecessary.

What is the product for? If you share more information maybe there is another way of dealing with the issue, like removal of the joints by a different circuit design. sarason
