Two things: * Our old friend Earl Moon published an out-standing paper on BGA rework in The SMTnet Newsletter. While it was done a while ago, you can't knock the method. Look here: http://www.smtnet.com/express/199908/bgarework/ * Daan Tersteggie'

Hi, We design electronic equipment that ends up in a fairly dirty environment (i.e. lots of dust bunnies, dirt, debris, etc...), and I was wondering if there were any detrimental affects of having no clean residue on our boards. I don't think it wo

I don't have any experinence with this, but my concern is that you are limiting the amount of contamination your pot can absorb before you ever run a board through. What I mean is that even if you are able to drain all but about a kg of the old sold

As R&D project leader I have worked at FICO on this issue the last years. Maybe you have found the info you are looking for but for laser cutting are more companies involved than the three you found, the experience I have with laser cutting for PCB p

We are prepairing a budget for the purchase and installation of a complete SMT Assembly Line. We need to assembly 25K units/month at the begining, and up to 100K unit/month in 1 year. The size of the PCB is around 3"x3" and the following components (

Howdy Marc, Check with your flux vendor, they should have a data sheet with what you need. Baring a wave rider or other profiler, I use a laser thermometer (They're cheap.)and It gets me close to where I need to be on our assemblies. I usually chec

All data loggers will be warmer at the higher lead free temps. Only two ways around this... better thermal barriers or fans after the profile to cool it down. Some places do not allow fans on the production floor due to static electricity, in that

If the only difference is the layer count, check the profile as stated above. If you dont have a profiler you can probably get the local Kic or Mole rep to do a demo on that board. I believe I was the one who stated in an old post that prying the lea

Your concern should be do you have a glue process that can keep up with the FCP6. We ran a GL541 in line with a CP643 which the glue machine was actually a bottle neck because if you run SOIC's which require more glue dots then it will slowdown the

Hi, Reliability was what I was worried about. We have not shipped these yet, as we are not sure about reliability. We can ship them in regions outside of the EU anytime so we are ok on that, and because of supply chain delays, we are already shippi
