For an nate measurement method, look here http://www.ipc.org/4.0_Knowledge/4.1_Standards/test/2.4.22c.pdf For bare boards, look to IPC-6012, par. 3.4.4 For assemblies, look to IPC-A-610

Bow & twist for bare boards and panels: IPC-A-610 1.5% for PTH only and 0.75% for SMT. So, what are you doing to these poor boards to make them warp?

Grace, You can get the information you need from IPC. Measuring board warpage is covered in theie 610B manual. It will let you know the what can be reworked and what cannot.

Q1) Simple way to measure the PCB warpage A1) IPC-TM-650; Method 2.4.22 Bow & Twist Q2) What is the maximum warpage can the SMT machine allow the to accept and place the component without problem. A2) That depends. IPC-A-610 Acceptability of Elect

7mils/inch is 0.7% and the IPC-A-610 calls for 0.75% (for SMT), so both are approx. the same. So there are no two methods in what you described. The 7mil/inch is also a percentage. Regards Vinit

Searching the IPC website is a good start. http://www.ipc.org Some standards you may want to look over are.... IPC 600, IPC 610, J-STD-001 "riveting and circuit cards into metal shelf" definitely has my curiosity level elevated. Since you know your

Without drilling through the numbers, they're probably correct. Recognize that standard warp / twist specs [IPC-A-610 1.5% for PTH only and 0.75% for SMT] are not going to make it on tech boards. You need to define specific requirements. This warp

Hi Folk's, a quick and easy? question. Got a card with PTH edge stiffeners fitted to it so we need to flow solder them. Having problems getting hole fill, mainly I think due to 2 things, poor pin to hole ratio and also a bit of oxide. The question i

We bought a VI Technology machine about 7 months ago. It's done a great job for us on military product (SMT cards - IPC A 610 Class 1 and 2). Results are only as good as the programming being done. Take a look at it (talk to them) and make a decisio
