Hi all We recently have a problem with component in package 0805 (capasitor 100nF). I have noticed that after reflow soldering only one lead of the component is soldered. The second one is just laying on the PCB land. We use screen printing process

Hi Tom, Thanks for the compliment. I've been researching and planning for the time that my company would go lead free since late in 1999. I hear you there, how do we know that the component is lead free. Baring a leap of faith with your vendors, I

We are having issues with top fill and dropping pins on Molex connectors with our KISS 101. Unfortunately we do not have a pre heater and bottom side pre heat with our nozzles is not satisfactory. Most of the issues occur when using a no clean proces

1 um". Some PCB manufacturer is telling me that this specification is not feasible in production. I would know if this position is due to the equipment (or process control) they have, or if in effect is not possible to satisfy my requests.

Try add a pre-heater. If not change the process or the machine. With KISS you will hardly get any PCB to work properly.

There are two profiles available for the Pb-free process: (1) RSS and (2) RTS. In your case, you should try a solder paste that supports RTS profiles. A minimum of 7 zone Refow Oven would be fine on the Pb-free process. However, you may still try by

HOW THICK IS THE BOARD? IS THERE A LOT OF COPPER IN THE BOARD? DOES YOUR CUSTOMERS PROVIDE HEAT RELIEF IN THE BOARDS BARREL DESIGN THERE NEEDS TO BE PLENTY OF ROOM FOR LEADFREE SOLDER TO FLOW, DID YOU CHECK YOUR PIN(LEAD)TO HOLE (BARREL) RATIO? N

In general two step temperature reflow process requires minimum 40 deg C delta to be sucessful. We are not using vapor phase soldering but we have similar situation when we change to SAC lead free solder for PCB component population and secondary swe

We are in the process of changing over our wave solder flux from alcohol based no clean to VOC free water based no clean. We are running an old Eletrovert with foam fluxer, tin lead solder. After preliminary testing on scrap boards and now starting t
