Thanks to all of you. This is very kind. I'll have a good poke around the circuit board for loose / hot components - good tips. I think it might be a throw away job, but I thought I'd give it a last try. You guys have actually given me much more

We have a board with 16 SMT connectors, side by side. We get some unsoldered pins on the connectors. There is about a half inch gap between them. The enigeer in charge of the project said it would cost too much to make something and didn't think it

Comments are: * Use an eraser if the surface of Au is not clean, but make sure the eraser has no/low ionics (such as sulfur that is a common additive for rubber). * If the plating surface required eraser to remove the top surface, the plasma normally

Isn't this a blatant violation of rules? Couldn't Bill have e-mailed a response directly to the poster? I'm not sure if acts like this frustrate users that actually are the people who work in this industry but it definately frustrates suppliers who

Hi, The acceptance level for voids is 25% and most of it on your case should be the paste. If you want to reduce / eliminate it, you gotta have the Production to practise FIFO for the usage of the paste. If it is expired paste or exposed to long

I don't think that anyone is saying we want to barr reps at all. I think the issue is that people get irritated when when certain reps work their sales shpeels into a forum response that does not warrant it.That's all. I value this site tremendously

Dear Pete, thanks for the reply. My calibration procedure says pretty much what you said: variance of 10 degrees F. I am having a temp. swing of close to 80 degrees F. and no matter how I try to situate the thermocouple back into the preheater, I ca

Mike, If your wave solder machine doesn't have enough preheat capacity you can put the board in an oven and warm it part way before you put it into the wave solder machine. This works best with a spray fluxer, as a warm board will collapse the foam

We hare having an issue with our chip shooters misplacing or not placing parts all together. We have traced it back to our adhesive machine. We are using both single and double dot nozzles. I feel that the biggest problem is excessive amounts of g
