hung copper balance is really critical in your case. in the same configuration we have specified less than 5% copper variation between top and bottom layer if you keep this rule, assembly will be ok, otherwise you will get a terrible warpage after

Restrictive carriers or lack of carrier in reflow can cause board warpage = bad for BGA's. Might be something to look at.

I have some 13" long boards that warp considerably during first pass through reflow (no center support), what I've done to improve this type of warpage is stiffeners along the front and back edge. This may help with twisted boards as well.

You have received some great feedback so far. I would like to summarize and add a few points regarding maintenance. You should start (as recommended already) by verifying your component library data. Using the default values from the master library i

We have a connector mfg that claims that their design is good and does not contribute to the problem that we are having. The problem is evidence of poor soldering. All other components that surround this connector have very good solder joints, with t

I've seen this warp issue across several different PCB's we assemble. One of the biggest head ache's is getting the boards to transfer between machines, converyors, and inside our pick and place. Due to the warpage, transport between conveyors is dif
