Check with your adhesive manufacturer. In a previous life we had one line that was either double sided reflow or wave following reflow. When it was ds reflow, we just shut off the wave. When it was reflow/wave, we kept the reflow oven on with the

We are assembling double side pcs reflowing (smt) on top and by wave on bottom. After first step (smt) we dispense glue on the bottom side putting one or two glue dots under small components and we cure in oven before wave. After wave soldering we f

Frank, Don't know about point 1 but if they don't fall off I don't worry about it. If they do fall off it's generally because someone has mishandled them before the wave, like shoving them into racks and the like. If they have fallen off and you can'

Of Course you can. We have a customer specific board that has a stupid connector underneith, and we must manually glue this one onto it's postition before reflow on the secondary side first... And as you know, the customers is alwayw left... The funn

I go with DaveF's advice. You are probably curing the glue too fast. Another phenomenon that I have experienced was during glue cure and solder paste reflow simultaeously. A good reason to run a glue cure profile seperately from solder paste reflow

Look at "Microcanyons", Circuits Assembly magazine, December 1998. There D Pauls & T Munson describe adhesive on boards that was cured too rapidly and formed a skin that trapped volatiles and solvents. The volatiles and solvents created long voids i

Generally speaking with most electronic grade epoxies: 1. Cure time is a function of temperature. 2. Polymer bonds begin to quickly break down above certain temperatures (product specific). I believe aprox 170-180C. The strength of the bond de

I have never tried this and wouldn�t really even want to consider it. Epoxy generally cures at around 160c in a fairly short amount of time, solder paste requires much more time and a peek temperature of about 210c or more in some cases. Curing you
