If followed, would the following strategy meet the requirements of IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033A; All MSD components are either exposed for less than 1/2 an hour or final reflowed within 12 hours of opening. What I mean by exposed is any time the parts are n

A process consists of much more than just thee machine. When developing a cause and effect diagram ffor the process, there are many parameters that fall outside the machine itself. There are Man, Machine, Methods, and Materials. Just monitoring th

You might consider an oxygen monitor (or lack of oxygen monitor). A fast response-rate analyzer should be used. There are several types of analyzers on the market and each has different limitations. * If you are looking for a measurement ranging fr

Hi, If I remember correctly (it has been about 15 years since i worked with one of these.)The old MCS machine is based upon a Motorola 6800/68000-series Micro processor and the operating system is OS/9 from Microware Systems Corporation. This was a r

as someone had said before, check you stencil and have it redesigned. I design our stencils for my factory and have inproved quality in BGA , QFP and 0603 case sizes. we did have 1 prototype series that used 0403 chips btu we had brand new feeders an

Here's why it all goes to China: Americans all want $100 per hour to change a light bulb yet refuse to pay any more than $10 for a cell phone and $500 for a computer. They only want to work 5 days per week, 7 hours a day and get one month off every

Are these shorts occuring after reflow, or are they shorted on the incoming boards before stuffing? If the latter, is the fabricator doing electrical test? How are these boards getting past their electrical test? Especially if multilayer, there's

It's more likely the warp is due to material issues. I've spent way more time than I'd care to admit running Thermoire with various profiles and there's pretty much nothing you can do to reduce warp via profile unless your current profile is truly a

I've always hated using machine specs....they're always best case scenarios, and nearly never capture actual through-put rates. Personally, I don't like using first-piece rates, either...unless you're looking for worst case scenarios. Usually, the
