More information would be helpful. For instance: * Talk about the distribution of the problem, including a single lot or from various lots and over components and component types on the board * Tell us about the board (ie, thickness, type, solder ma

I don't have any actual "hard" data to give on improvements but, I can share some experiences with you. What we noticed when we implemented the Rheo pump was: No more solder "skips" on our boards, Improved print quality on our BGA's & 16mil fine pitc

Igmar, I would check a couple of things. First, check to make sure your oven profile is acceptable. You do not want to shock the parts. Second I would check to see if the parts are breaking in a consistant pattern. Are they always split at the

There are several things to look for in a compliant tooling system 1. How much force per pin is required to lock the pins in place? This is especially important since you will be multiplying by the total number of pins on all modules. 2. Is ther

Greg This is one of the eternal questions. I have racked my brains over this one in many organisations. If you are a low volume user (as your run size of 100 to 1000 would indicate) then you are likely to loose more taped components from loading and
