Dave - will placing MELF's in SMT eliminate the original problem? Is the flux aggressive enough to clean mold release agents from the component manufacturer? Good point about LT reliability, just wondering what would happen if glue was eliminated fr

A lot of our dewetting is happening on plastic body components, such as ICs. When they are manufactured, the molding process requires a mold release to make the part release after molding. Usually, the release agent is silicon based, but you can't

Where on the assembly is the dewetting occurring? Factors that influence dewetting usually involve non-ionic contamination such as: * Residues from board manufacture including silicone surfactants from solder resist & HASL rinse contamination * Comp

While there may not be any specific requirement to cleaning prior to coating, cleaning an assembly prior to coating will only serve to increase the reliability and integrity of the coating. Some residues from low-solids fluxes can interact with conf

| We have experienced poor adhesion of acrylic conformal coating to plastic bodied IC�s. The observed symptoms of this are a blistering or lifting of the coating at the surface of the component, although peel testing has revealed that this is not al

Good morning Jamie. I work at a CM and can offer some input on process flexability. I do not have any data on how reliable the coating is but I can say that they are both very difficult to control. Will you be selective coating or full coating? Ho

Matt, I suppose the automated system you refer to is the VPD-101 camera system that captures component image and with a few clicks on the mouse you are able to define all the element data and dimensions of that part. Check with your local Fuji agent,

|Yes, I am aware of this machine being a Sanyo. I was told, however, that due to confidential agreements, Sanyo will not release any information pertaining to the specs of the machine. I was hoping to obtain the specs of the cutting blade to make my
