I am waiting for our parts order to come in with the Torque checker and I will post right away to let you know how it works. We only have the Fuji CP-6 feeders here, so I cannot help you with the problems with the CP7. I am looking into a calibrati

I wuld say it is attachment method and post install force that is the problem not the size of the heatsink. we place heatsinks that are at least 5 times the size of BGA with no issue, they are attached with very precision torque drivers. Russ

what I have usually found although not from wave conveyor chains but from racing motorcycles is that binding is caused by wear and bending and not dirt unless it is excessive to the point that you can actually see the dirt that is binding it. When t

Sorry about the non SMT post, but I figured that there might be someone with a similar experience out there. We have been having a tough time cleaning the conveyor chains in our wave solder machine. We have been cleaning them in a self cleaning oven,

sorry. re-read your post. The problem is the home sensor relative to the home pulse. You're catching the wrong home pulse. a 10mm offset sounds about right for a 360 degree error. You need 50% +/- 15 % to ensure you always zero to the same phys

Q1: How do you define torque setting for screw? A1: Talk to people at your nut supplier. Some nut suppliers post torque tables on the web. For instance: http://www.thelenchannel.com/1torque.html http://www.marfas.com/Ttorque.shtml http://www.pac

All, For what it's worth the only time I have experienced this phenom was when board support pins were misplaced on our chip shooter and these components (previously placed) were resting on the pins and cracking when we populated the other side o

Another test to consider is dye penetrant analysis. The technique involves flooding the area beneath the soldered part with dye (preferably a bright color, like red). After drying the board+dye in an oven, you peel or torque the part off and inspec

| Earl, | As always, I am interested in what you have to say, but I am still a little vague on your application of ANSI Y14.5 as it relates to the manufacturability of an assembled printed circuit board. Are you implying that component placement coor

We find that the raw BGA's pad sheared surface has the SnPb solder at various Z heights whereas the assembled BGAs pad leave a smooth layer of SnPb along the pad. Like to understand the cause for the difference. Who could guess? Solder joint streng
