Hi Steve, I work for an analytical laboratory that specializes in ionic cleanliness, and we have found through the variety of cleanliness issues we encounter that the Envirosense cleaning chemistries are very effective also, so you might want to add

Hello Greg, I agree with you that the article in SMT Magazine should be studied very carefully as it contains many errors in respect to SN100C. The testing performed was a DOE and was not an optimized run. There is also a statement on dross generatio

It sounds like your depaneling method is good. The only thing left to look at is to see if the depaneler is hitting the part somehow from the cutter or the bottom plates. I've seen time and time again where an operator has a part in contact with th

Hi, I agree, and normally we would not act like this to a real person, but this guy is a joke, and it was funny to read the replies to it, and reply. Guru is never going to be part of this forum, because he's just some weird guy who's too arrogant
