Is anyone using .062 aluminum circuit boards with copper conductors in your production lines? What kind of reflow profile is required? What special considerations are there to be looking for? I am asking for any information you can give me. Thanks

Robert McKeown Company makes thermally conduct Al tape. KIC did a study on which method (Kapton Tape, Aluminum Tape, Hi-Temp Solder) is the most repeatable. The study can be found in their website: http://www.kicthermal.com Al Tape placed 2nd, and

My understanding is that you get a reading that's the average of all of the jumped points if you jump tc wires with conductive tape. If you're doing multiple parts on a board with varying masses and don't control the attachment method (i.e., how mu

"Readings from thermocouple fixed by kapton tape only are inaccurate." I keep hearing this, but I haven't heard why, exactly. Why would they be any less accurate than with Al tape, which by nature of it's conductivity can provide an inaccurate measu

This sounds like you are using a straight ramp profile. For this type of an assembly you may need to use a soak type profile. Most solder paste providers show you both types of profiles that work best with that paste. I would try using that profil

I just ran into a reflow profiling problem with a new assembly that we are processing in SMT. There is a cluster of six or so electrolytic caps that measure approx. .710" wide by .660" tall. They are spaced .100" or so apart. When I run a profile, t

Good afternoon, Readings from thermocouple fixed by kapton tape only are inaccurate. This is the fact. At least you need to fix thermocouple with aluminum tape covered by kapton tape. Pete C is right. High temperature solder connection is a preferre
