You might try to complete all your soldering within a 72 hour or less time frame. For all intents treat your board like a moisture sensitive component after you have baked and completed SMT reflow. Wash, blow dry, and go direct to stuffing and com

1/8" cutters, although they can only be used with our newer height-controlled machines. 3. Reduction of operating parameters. Reduced Z-axis plunge rates for the larger cutter sizes. 4. Addition of a 1/2 sec. dwell at the plunges. The small pause he

We're dealing with upcoming (Oct. 2008) requirements for secondary containment of hazardous material that are dependant upon volume. 20 gallons or 200 lbs. (dry). Our washer has a 60 gallon wash sump and a 35 gallon rinse sump. The challeng is how

smt_guy: In removing passivation coats and handling oil, board fabs do light washes with: * Sulfuric acid * Alkaline * Water ... and then blow dry. They do not see "oil" like you seem to be talking about. Their "oil" is the assumption that someone

In general, cleaning with deionized water is acceptable for most component. Open switches and contacts, in general, do not get damaged in this process. A good drying is required, of course, after washing. However, you've described dewetting issues

The ultrasonic frequency used in today�s stencil cleaners is usually a 40 kHz �sweep� frequency (also used on semiconductors and other sensitive cleaning applications). This frequency is not low enough to cause stencil damage (the lower the frequen

Wash them in Saponifier frequently at around 40C rinse and dry thoroughly. I would imagine it could be going white if you have a resin system in the flux that is not water soluble. Ensure you are using suitable pallet material up to 300C for Lead Fre

Hey there Dave! We used to use a batch cleaner when we used water-clean paste. It was similar to a dishwasher, except that it had a digital menu for entering the number of wash cycles, water temp., amount of saponifier (we just used DI water),

Principle A layer of photosensitive material (photosensitive oil or dry film) is applied to the copper foil on the board surface, and PCB manufacturer should be use the position is exposed by black film, This applies to most PCB factories, especially
