The 2009M is a water based flux and requires more preheating compared to alcohol based fluxes. After checking real chunks advice you might check if you hear sizzling when the solder touches the board (indicator that the water is not eliminated by you

I got mine from my used equipment broker, and it was version 1.5. I would try wherever you get your spares from. My recollection is that the "free" versions (1.5 and older) are not available through Assembleon anymore and that the current version

Update Received cross-section analysis for ENIG plated boards and am happy to report that we have no voiding issues. Intermetalics look great and no copper dissolution. No process parameters were changed, only the PCB plating. For now, we are onl

That may have been the case a while back and I know this is an a fairly old post, but during this year we had most onsite for trial and the latest MVP software stood out for us (plus I think the rules based method suits us best), plus their support i

Thanks for the reply Stephen. The time factor sounds logical for moisture invasion during cleaning, probably why there's no articles showing concern about the process. I did try experimenting with some samples and believe it or not could not dupli

Sorry about having to have a meter on site. Our license is good for 3 years, so we don't have to have it checked often. If our dosimeter report comes back really high or if we just want to have it checked we can thru a local company any time.

These are inexpensive radiation monitoring devices and it is possible, when they are calibrated to a Cesium-137 standard (at 600 keV), for the meter to read higher than the actual value at lower x-ray photon energies. [Glennbrook Technologies Caution

So far so good over here. We did 60% growth over the past two years; and the early indicators are that another 30% is doable for us. We're a small CM; just at 10 employees; but growing. Good mix of industries served. I think that and our niche of
