Yep, but its hard to contol small parts with the bags. They're good for DIP's and sockets, connectors, but radials are kinda hit and miss. I bought mine from Pentagon EMS. They only use the finest european leather (kidding). PENTAGON EMS 10950 SW

Try spraying flux on top of the loaded PWB when you put it on the conveyor. The tackiness of the flux does a pretty fair job of keeping the axial leaded parts down to the board. This takes more cleaning, but it has worked wonders for me on assemblies

Q: The question I have is do they wet in wave solder, and if they do, why does it matter what happens to them in reflow? A: Yes, but somebody here don't agree with me that the glued part need help from wave to get the good wetting. They are wrong

is there any standard gap between the terminal and pad if we place the glue? SMT-4 mention as per what you understand which is using glue at SMT without solder paste and run at wave solder for the solder paste at the terminal. Glue supplier recomm

Like Mark, I'm guessing your problem is with SMT parts on the top side, the solder is re-melting and some of the parts are moving around during when the board is being wave soldered. When I had some training on thru hole wave soldering way back when

| | I hope that someone can help me with my problem! I am experiencing a lot of glued on parts falling off in the wave solder machine. A little information about my process: 1)We use Loctite 3609 glue that is used up long before its shelf life 2)Ou

Hi Devaf, Sorry to make unclear statement earlier. I believe the issue that i'm trying to discuss is regarding the adhesive that place beneath (center) the component to prevent it from drop during wave soldering process. Normally the component pack

is there any gap between the pad and terminal if we place the glue? Btw, my practice to print solder pate then punch glue then PNP component and finally reflow. Also we find drop/missing chip after wave eventhough we glue the component.

yigh, loose the glue, put paste on ALL bottom SMD components and cover ALL SMD components with peel off before wave.

solder the part is for SMT component (located at top side and bottom side) and wave solder is for THP (located at top side only).
