We found repeated pad lifted after different SMT Reflow temperature (eg: 243 deg C and 233 deg C) at an isolated slot. The PCB Supplier had claimed that such condition is acceptable as per IPC 600H Clause 3.3.2 (Cross Sections) - eg: Acceptable - C

Your customer is correct. Your supplier has clamped some sort of machine to your butt and has plugged it in the wall outlet. Honest mistake: * IPC-A-600H, 3.3.2 Lifted Lands - (Cross Sections) ... pertains to boards that were cross sectioned after t

Hi, What types of failures are discovered at specified? Is it the problems of deviations, angles or incorrect component form? Our customers use software tool QPlan to prepare placement programs (SMT SETUP). It includes simulation, automatic correcti

Hi, An answer to this question is very complex. The amount of components and their type is only one parameter to determine the level of failure. Additional parameters that can influence are: 1. The density components on the card 2. Machine type and

Hello, I have seen two different ways in two companies - one they do it before start of every batch, the others do it when a program is made. I am a fan of the first one, but it depends on company policy. Its good when you have to make a lot of chang

Hi, I agree with Buckcho. Further to what was said here, our customers perform preliminary simulations to discover potential problems in production. To do so, they use software tools such as QPlan and QPlace UPD. QPlan automatically detects and fix

Hi, We have developed solution, called QPlan, that is reading CAD (different formats), merging it with BOM (including check of BOM and compare exceptions), comparing with your history library of Assembleon/Philips, simulating SMT process with automa

Thanks Mr. Darby, We already Check All connections of I/F Boards, Restore OS, Change Motherboards and Install Backup for SmartSM files and Install new MMI (SmartSM files). But still same Problem. I have one possible cause in my mind is its MVME3100

Simulating with what? In developed countries manual labour is expensive but is also still the most common solution to fitting though hole parts, even if the board are then wave-soldered. Mixing SMT and THT on what sounds like a very simple product wi
