Hi, I might not have been clear in my previous post on this, and the problem we saw is the hot metal of the oven walls caused IR transmission of heat into the board, and thats why the point in time from the start of the profile to the point the PCB

Hi, The oven we had used an air sensor, however we had heat from the metal oven walls IR conducting into the board. Once you run an oven, the metal retains a surprising amount of heat, and that radiates as IR energy out of the walls, and into the pr

Hi Steve Thanks for your reply. Your comments make it sound like it may be the nature of this paste. Any one else agree? Paste control is fairly good. Paste is put in fridge straight after it arrives at inwards goods, (4deg). Removed from fridge

We currently have RMA and WS soldering processes here and do batch cleaning for both. We are experiencing some capacity issues and are interested in looking at an IN-LINE aqueous wash. My experience with in-line wash is only with WS. 1. Since RMAs

"Usually people use the vacuum to remove air and then replace with nitrogen to eliminate oxidation and a medium for bacterial growth. Why anyone would need to vacuum pack a pcb is beyond me, though. " We might get a batch of 400 pcbs in but the kit

I wasn't fond of the help ticket approach to tech support that Aqueous Tech. uses. Our buyer reports a lot of "communication issues" (as they don't seem to be very responsive). I could burn Unit Design until they call in the fire trucks. I'll j

Hello, I have been recently bringing a new RoHS wave soldering machine into production. Unfortunately, I am finding many of the boards are experiencing blow holes. It is always silver plated PCBs and I believe it is related to moisture ingress. I n

Hi Vee, We are planing on doing low-medium volume and prototyping boards with the following packages. TQFP, BGA and other SMT packages. I would like to go with some thing like batch/tabletop oven for now, but I am not excluding conveyor reflow oven

In my limited experience. A Domestic Dishwasher with no water recycling like which is offered on some of the newer high priced models works a treat. Clearly this is batch. Inline filtering of the water supply is a good ideal. There are several ways o
