Recently, there has been an upsurge in the Pin Hole/Blow Hole problem in our wave soldering process. We are baking the PCBs for 2 Hrs. at 125 degree C. The Wave Soldering profile seems to be O.K. Still the problem is persistent. Can somebody help

The majority of SMT resistors use the following notation. 10 X eg 153 represents 1k5 resistor The third digit in the sequence denotes the number of zeros to add after the first two digits giving the value in ohms. Many Caps will follow the same nota

| I'm looking into vision inspection equipment to automatically inspect SMD placement and solder joint quality. Does anyone have any recommendations or know of any commonly used equipment? Do other manufacturers use vision systems at their inspecti

We currently have RMA and WS soldering processes here and do batch cleaning for both. We are experiencing some capacity issues and are interested in looking at an IN-LINE aqueous wash. My experience with in-line wash is only with WS. 1. Since RMAs

I'd have to agree with JAX here. This forum is intended to be a "Technical Bulletin / Newsgroup" and nothing else. Truthfully, these posts of the "old-timers" announcing their departures is getting..well.....OLD. I hate to see the Old-timers leave
