We have a serious misalignment problem of D-Pak components (Specifically Motorola's part number MJD-3055/MJD-2955)following reflow soldering process. We are using Alpha Metals UP78 solder paste. Our reflow oven is Nitrogen inerted and our oxygen leve

Usually the alignment problem comes from pad design. The ground pad (largest) is too small. If that is the case (and even if it isn't) try placing a dot of SMT adhesive before placement (it will cure before reflow and hold the part in place). Goo

Hi, friends Need your urgent help on bellow issue ....... we are facing issue of misalign of one bulky SMT transformer during the placement itself rejection @40% & after reflow rejection @5 % using SMT m/c QP242 , placing this component at end of al

I do agree with Jerry: you should apply more paste on it, either with a step stencil, or doing overprint on it by, let's say 120% on Transformer's pad. Also, you need to check : a) there's smooth movement on transport process after the placement, no

Kantesh, Does this particular part have a heat sink across the bottom side of the component and does your pad size and stencil aperture match the component? I have just had a very similar problem with a DPAK. What we found was that the recomended pad

Make sure that both lead frames are contacting the PCB pads when the part is on the placement head. We had an SM xfrmer that we were handling with vacuum by a ferrite cap that was not glued on straight. The part would contact one set of pads and get

From looking at your images I would say it could be poor solderability on the terminations of the component itself. Can you get your hands on a different date code and try them out?

We are using QP fuzi m/c during the placement of comp. PCB is fixed & placement head is movable This component is placed at last but still we are getting the problem Comp. is placed with slowest setting also slowest comp. transfer speed of nozzle h

Christopher: Thank you for sharing your experience about the DPAK. Yes, out part has a heat sink at the bottom. Our stencil opening was 7 mils (in both X and Y) smaller than the pad size excepting that the stencil opening consisted of a series of zeb
