Spray fluxer conversion

Electronics Forum | Thu Nov 16 12:52:04 EST 2017 | charliedci

We installed a SonoFlux ultrasonic spray fluxer, replacing the foam fluxer in our Electrovert Econopak wave in 2014. The cost at that time was 16K, installation included. We ran water based flux through it and as long as we kept it clean, worked well

Advices on selecting spray fluxer: reciprocating vs. fixed head

Electronics Forum | Sun Nov 19 09:16:56 EST 2017 | andras

Which one have better coverage, easier adjustment product-by-product, easier handling: the fixed head or the reciprocating one? Without any practice in spray fluxers, I think the reciprocating should be the better one, because even if the head haven

Tracking labor at selective solder

For me it looks like a scheduling issue. You can do time studies on your assemblies and predict the best workload, based on scheduling the jobs in the right sequence. Also it sounds like you have only one operator. Train more people to operate will h

Has anyone heard of a no clean paste that can be cleaned in straight DI water ?

Electronics Forum | Fri Jan 26 12:57:34 EST 2018 | aqueous

Sorry to disappoint. No-Clean fluxes are resin-based. They are not soluble in water. Water soluble fluxes are by nature Organic Acid and are soluble in water AND must be cleaned within a short period after reflow as they remain conductive and corrosi

Chinese Production SMT Machines???

Electronics Forum | Thu Mar 01 17:29:20 EST 2018 | dleeper

I would be very cautious about buying a first generation machine. In my experience new platforms always have bugs and problems. Even the high end, established pick and place suppliers have issues with new platforms. Are you based in China? It's har

Nozzle selection

Based on the pickup surface area: 1. Use the biggest nozzle possible, 2.Keep in mind that some nozzles have bigger inside diameter hole(more vacuum) 3. Keep in mind that some pickup surfaces are rigid(not really flat surface) - use rubber tip nozzles

Reflow soldering issue

Electronics Forum | Fri Sep 21 15:27:34 EDT 2018 | stv_herring

Peter, Based on the images, it looks the HASL is too thin. I have seen this a few times when the pcb supplier uses too aggressive of a process to remove the solder. This can lead to oxidation of the underlying copper. An XRF of a pad that won't take
