Usually the alignment problem comes from pad design. The ground pad (largest) is too small. If that is the case (and even if it isn't) try placing a dot of SMT adhesive before placement (it will cure before reflow and hold the part in place). Goo

I'll have to second Boca. I have used the TA blades exclusively for three years and have never seen the coating come off. I think you'll be able to make a case for your bean counters. John Thorup

I'm not a chemical guy, I'm a cleaning system guy. From my experience, lead does not normally go into solution unless there is an additive to your water (i.e saponifier), and if this is the case, you will need a membrane system (R.O.) to get it back

Believe it! Although it might be necessary in certain rare cases, and as Ray says, as a bandaid, to routinely bake your boards is a mistake. For much more info, search the IPC technet archives over the last few weeks. It was a popular thread

Generic fabs should not require baking. Some special cases like teflon and flex circuits take moisture very well, they often continue to require a trip to the oven. Best wishes, Boca

Brian, That should be the case, and I will check it to see if it does have that information showing. The leading message should contain all forums that all messages in the thread to which they pertain. It is currently capped at 4 icons, so that it

I would appreciate hearing views on vapour phase soldering particularly in respect to BGA's. I know that they used to use CFC's but apparently this is no longer the case? Can anyone help with some info? Thanks, Alan Brewin
