| I am building a board with T1/34 LED's in a 10X10 array there are 12 arrays in a panel. The LED's are body to body in the array, .1 spaced. The LEDS have been autoinserted on a Universal RAD III, so they are cut and clinched. The trouble I am havin

I was able to escape from Riyadh last week to attend APEX. PK Metals actually had a booth where they did a live demo. They had a working solder pot with dual wave, and demonstrated how their material acts as a barrier to oxidation, which causes dro

Hello colleagues, I appeal to your expertise in this matter that has taken me by surprise. A week ago it was decided to change the solder brand for the wave machine, (only the brand, the alloy is the same). The pot was emptied and filled with the

| We've noticed that there are many different recommendations for pad sizes for various SMT parts. This seems to vary wildly from manufacturer to manufacturer for the same case sizes. Is there any standards that can used used to specify these sizes

Could be. What are your profiles? 2) Au finish fail => Could be, but that the connections can be made with hand soldering makes this a low probability cause, assuming the activity of the flux used in hand soldering is not significantly different fr

| I have a problem! The solder on my pc boards look great comeing out | of my reflow oven. They go thrue the rest of the prossese | and at the end at the qc station it's cold or whitish or gray not shiny. | does any one have a idea on how to correct

I ever thot of changing the whole solder pot altogether but then it prove to be a costly measures.. If looking at the source of the problem, it might be mainly due to the way that the machine had been maintain... Anyone care to share how they are per

A reasonable assumption but it could be a reaction between your solder resist and the fluxes in the wave and reflow processes. The issue is, how will anyone really know? Then, are they likely to compromise circuit reliability? I have a method that wi
