Is anyone using K100 bar solder? Why or why not?

Electronics Forum | Thu May 11 08:27:15 EDT 2006 | timnop

We will be receiving our lead free wave solder machine soon and I have been doing a lot of reading here. I've seen many dicussions about SAC vs. SN100C for wave applications and am leaning heavily towards the SN100C for my process. I haven't seen any

Need help for setting up an assembly line

Electronics Forum | Mon Jun 19 22:19:40 EDT 2006 | Nathan

Dear All, We plan to setup an assembly line for our small volume production of PCBs (about couple hundred PCBs per week). The board has about 150 components (less than 30 types) and a few BGA and IC (majority is SMT, only few THT connectors). We hav

Hi Evtimov, You need to call your manufacturer! Just joking! Sorry, but it is a "forum", which means you need to pick and choose your information carefully. Some are rookies that may give a simple or silly answer without knowing, some are seasone

Then Fuji it is. I'm happy with the features the Juki's R seriers are giving out. It is like, everything I could think of a placement machine if I would design one for myself...the 2060R is something I would buy happily...especially after you telling

RoHS Board Delamination

Electronics Forum | Tue Oct 24 09:52:35 EDT 2006 | SWAG

We are having the exact same problem! We do about 6 or so ROHS SMT builds. 5 are fine now but we had problems with most initially and 1 is trouble still. All boards are same material, same PCB manufacturer. Initially, when the delam. problem occu

"Gap" in completed solder joint between lead and pad

Electronics Forum | Thu Nov 30 16:10:05 EST 2006 | Hussman

Wow, why all the anger? This gap you guys are talking about is measured as "G" in IPC/EIA J-STD-001 (Chunks was there, but she failed to read the fine print). And almost all parts that measure G follow Note 3 which states "Properly wetted fillet s

SMT Line Changeover Time

Yes, pre-loaded feeders is the best way. If you do not have that option as you are high mix or do work for different companies that have many different part numbers, I would guess that your printer will take about 15 minutes to get ready, each HSP f

Lead-Free BGA Rework

Electronics Forum | Thu Jun 28 16:55:45 EDT 2007 | hegemon

Hey Brian, Did you use the auto profile feature on your DRS25 machine to arrive at your profile? Our DRS25 has been doing quite well at larger BGA components. Most critical is a good preheat until the PCB reaches at least 140c, followed by a 2degC

PickNPlace machine suggestions?

Electronics Forum | Thu Nov 01 21:44:32 EDT 2007 | daxman

Sorry everyone...you all seem to be fond of the MyData machines. I just had to make a comment. We had a TP9 for about 2 years. It rarely got used because of the terrible programming interface..When compared to Fuji Flexa and Fuji machines, we reall

Affordable Inspection Microscopes?

Electronics Forum | Mon Jan 14 17:15:24 EST 2008 | jmelson

$200 is iffy, even for a used, reconditioned unit. I got an aged Olympus for about that some years ago, but had to make my own stand. There is a Chinese-made stereo microscope (no zoom) that is absolutely worthless for inspection, because the "thro
