A good fixture is the key here. The first side should be easier than te second(if double sided). In both cases I will try to level the top of the board with the top of the fixture. Try to lock with pins comming from the fixture to the PCB holes. This

Jorge: I took this total posting to several fabs at IPC APEX. None was satisfied with the answers you receive from your supplier or the Forum members. They suggested that you get your board analyzed. They were surprised that your supplier didn't in

Also Rehm Thermal Systems Ovens would be worth a look... They are well made, ALL stainless tunnel , 3 phase blowers, highly realiable, and they have new entry level series called VXC Series starting at 6 zones+, but based on same tech and build as t

If you register your machines with Universal, you will be granted access to all on-line documents. Also, you would be able to order spares from their on-line shop. I paid 500$ for one machine registration and it was money well spent. Also, please sp

Sounds like you need to be at a different level of operator. They may have had operators locked out. You will need to know the password or if you know dos well, you can find it out there. You can also call PPM for assistance. Just search PPM and yo

I am sick of Kapton. We have varying levels of leftover residues on multiple brands and I'm done chasing this thing. We have tested some wave tapes that were total garbage in years past. Really don't want to go there. Peelable liquid masks - Who

Protect the board: If solder mask protects the board, the level of protection is limited and inconsistent. If you want protection, you need the be thinking conformal coating. Selective ENIG: I believe the reason solderability protection, except mayb

Oh yeah, I've seen this before! Generally, if the hole sizes are correct (including plating), and the PEMs are within spec, we've found that this is most commonly caused by insufficient support of the PCB during insertion. If you can eliminate supp

MSL rating is not tied to a specific package type/size. I have seen 2 components (ICs) have the same physical package but one was MSL-3 while the other was MSL-5. From my experience, while component manufacturers are not consistent as to where they
