We have found that using the SPC capability of the profiler's pc software helps us identify oven malfunctions sooner than we would normally find it. The ovens tend to compensate for dieing or dead blowers by cranking the heaters on for longer cycles

There is a new toy I received today: a NeoDen TM-240A automatic desktop pick and place machine! I’ve kept my eyes on this baby for a quite a while, and finally decided to make a purchase last week. The shipping was very fast: DHL from China, a total

We have experience with this alloy, but with enig and we did start with PB HASL, none of our PCBs would of course pass thermal cycling at normal temperatures with the HASL so we went to ENIG. we could thermal cycle at 100-115C with no issues. We foun

Multiple process and rework thermal cycles are brutal on boards and components. Improving reliability of products through reducing thermal stress ends-up being a major driver to the interest in lower MP LF solders. Binary LF solders require the addit

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

| Dear all, | | What are your views on reworking BGA's? I mean, with the BGA going through reflow temperatures four times or more, and with a manual reballing process, wouldn't it raise up a few reliability issues? Would you consider not doing rew

Earl, et al, Boy things get old and cold around here fast. I promised more detail on my capactior problem and I thought I could drop something completely different in the same message and tell a tale of solder balls. First the caps. We still have

Methods that can reduce the wettability of OSP: * Previous heat cycles * Previous cleaning cycles * IPC-1601 "Printed Board Handling and Storage Guidelines" says do not bake prior to soldering * Using improper handling methods BR ... davef
