Let me be more specific about my dilema. We have used a vapor phase reflow process for many years. We just bought a Heller 1800 this year (2000). We may very well be able to run all 600 very different board types we build in 10 recipies on the Hel

Let me see if I've got this straight...rather than hook up a MOLE or a KIC profiler to each and every board (600 P/N's in my case), most people are making judgement calls based solely on how similar a board looks to another board, for which they have

Why worry about the temperature if the top of the chip is 20 degrees C above eutectic - 183 C(at the balls)...if a machine works at convection oven temperatures, with high power, then there's no need to worry...Also, a CSP is a very forgiving chip.

Hi All: Can you tell me specifically if you converted an exiting product made with Clean process using WS609 or compatible to 'No-Clean' process. We have to convert assemblies from current clean process at a CEM to No-Clean process in our own factor

We are a small/medium contract manufacturer and like most we do our best to ensure that PCB's we process are panelised to ensure efficient throughput and good quality results. Sometimes however we are stuck with free issue PCB panels supplied by som

Hi Pete We have a Black and Decker Power File and have mounted it on a bench in an enclosure to capture the hazardous dust. We used a hopper (usually used for guttering!) with a wire mesh over the top (static reasons) mounted in the bench top inside

Kevin: You're correct. Loose the glue, unless you're waving second side or have real heavy components. Check the archives for component weights, references, and what not. I believe that most people (let's see a show of hands kids) are using two pa

Hi Kevin , we use frequently double reflow + selective soldering after , and try to avoid the glue process as much as possible because that 's not very reliable process in comparison to reflow process . We begin now to work on PTH components soldered

Ashok: You're still goin' down that ol' ESD road aren't ya bud? Why do you need the boards to be dry? Conformal coating? Hey wait a minute, are you one of those no-clean people? Er zis related to the Kapton tape res fandango? Anywho, be careful
