Switched out the mech. relay on the board loader, no change. Same behavior. Could not find a mech. relay on the printer... SMEMA wiring appears go directly to a PCB. And it is at that point that I run out of talent. If the machine weren't dedicate

Assuming the traces run parallel and perpendicular to each other, I'd choose one direction the traces run as "x" and the other direction for "y." Then I'd pick a unique identifier on the board to insure proper orientation. Next, I'd measure warp and

Gary: That's curious. Tell us more about your process steps, temperature profiles, paste, warping of the board without the PIH processing, components, etc

Please give us additional background on your board, solder, process, etc. If you are talking about black pad in ENIG solderability preservative, check the fine SMTnet archives to get started.

Hi!! Where can I get information about Post- and pre-reflow rework? Some links, opinions?? Please Tell me? I would like to know too some methods and cost effective ways,that how we can rework repair printed boards? Thanks!!

I have expirence running,double sided Imm gold boards recently which ed up a lot of solderability issue. The Imm gold need to be slightly more control during reflow oven area on it's profile.

Tg is just a way to say when the board goes limp... or a quick way to rank laminates... who cares. For lead free you want to look at Td, Decomposition Temperatures. ( Temp at which the material weight changes by 5% )

from what i know, Tg is important from thermal stresses point of view. board warpage increases greately when Tg is exceed

I would say no, unless your machine is in extremeconditions. You may want to check your flux / preheat out as well. If you are leaving a lot of flux on the board at wave, it may be boiling - which can cause solder balls.

Td - is the degradation temperature for a laminate (board), while Tg - is glass transition one. There is one more (even more important) - delta Tg. They characterize the quality of the laminate material. Regards, Vlad www.sentec.ca
