I don't know who's driving the bus there, but I personally would just tell my boss that it couldn't be done without: (1) compromising the quality and reliability of the product (2) increasing the cost to manufacture the product (3) increasing the scr

Thanks all for the advice so far. I'm definitely considering the 4C & the TP9-U. I've also seen a Zeva 575, Philips Eclipse, & Juki 720. These seem to be a little more expensive. Any feedback on these machines - is the extra expense worth it? How e

We have had VERY GOOD free tech support from Mydata. However, we bought a refurbished TP9 directly from them. I believe if you by a used MyData machine from someone else there is a fee to register your company and the machine in their system before

about WHY violating IPC design standards gives you grief? Do they even know they exist? We've got one in particular that seems to shoot from the hip. I want to tell them the "why" as well as the "what" so they'll be a little more proactive. My fee

Bottom-side SMT parts CAN and DO go liquidus during the 2nd reflow cycle. It could be that there was enough variability between the 2 different lot code PCBs to cause the parts to fall off. Remember wetting force determines surface tension (the abi

"Disturbed" usually means some form of movement. I would think your leads are moving due to warp as the board exits the reflow zone. Not knowing your profile, I would suggest checking your profile. Make sure you have adequate "above liquidous" and

CK So as I see it batch B represents a leaded process with leaded components and D is a leaded process with lead free components. Batch Components Paste B SnPb Sn62 D Lead-free Sn62 If so it is BETTER to run a lead free BGA with Sn

Hi Scott, I have worked for a State side PCB Manufacture and now a Taiwan Manufacture. At both shops the up charge was based on how many up the pallet array was plus layer count and complexity of product, charges ranged from free to 15%. Standa

You're barking up the wrong tree. Solder "splashes" are generally caused by your print being off pad a bit. They are called solder fines. I've never seen a placement machine have the capability to push paste around using it's kiss-off from the noz
