Sup G! Normally when spray fluxers get neglected, the spray pattern is the first thing affected. To actually 'see' this, we cut out a piece of cardboard the same size and length of the board. Run it over the fluxer and then turn itover and look at

Patrick, Back in my rich OEM days, i actually DID measure mg/in^2. I bought a scale, which measured in mg, specifically for this. Basically, took a blank PCB, took a "before" weight, sprayed it, and then took an "after" weight. I measured at diffe

That the bubbling gets worse when you run the board through the oven indicates the issue is with the balance between releasing volatiles and cure. Try one of these ideas: * Adjust the atomization pressure, nozzle size, temperature or viscosity of th

A good paste will print fine up to 5 in/sec or so. They key, as mentioned, is to get the pressure right for a given squeegee speed. If the squeegees aren't giving a clean wipe then you'll see huge variation in print volume which can lead to shortin

Jim, It's been a long time since I worked on one of these so this is going to be a general idea as to the issue. There's a solenoid valve that is controlled by the E-stop ckt. When in E-stop in stops air from entering and vents the pressure lines

Pressure printing systems Conventional stencil printing techniques have fundamental limitations as regards paste handling: The volume of paste available for printing is limited, so frequent replenishment is necessary Paste is difficult to c

I've been using metal blades on several brands of printers over the past few years and have to agree with comments in other replies. Contact print is a must or you will tear slits in your stencils at the ends of the blade. Center-mounted (floating) s

James, I've done some extensive studies cleaning BGA's while I was employeed by one the companies you are considering. In an attempt to avoid being commercial I will use general statments to address your question(s). The key to cleaning underneath

Hi All, I'm having a problem with a Fuji GP-341. It has squeegee pressure control using a TEAC TD-320A comparator. I cannot get it to measure printing pressure. On the TD-320A it normally reads "2512" then flips to "oFl4" then back to "2512". If

Check specific gravity: According to a quick web search, the specific gravity should be 0.813 ± 0.003. If you have records of the specific gravity, compare current reading to past readings. Check pressure near stone: if you have records, compare
