I think I read a thread very similar the other day but can't find it. If I remember correctly, the component database for that part was polarized and pre-orientation was used for camera inspection. It turned out that the optimization module in the

We have experienced a problem with tin leaching or discoloration of lead terminals on random parts on solder side of a paste/paste operation. The profile has been used on previous production runs and there doesn't appear to be any heat damage to othe

we encounter some open joint on the CPU socket after rework. We tried to reflow the boards again (using BGA rework machine) and found that the contact issue was resolved. Is there any risk to perform a reflow again on the CPU Socket boards without re

No, you can easily find out if it's a part issue - put down another component with the same footprint(either a chip cap or a different value resistor - like the one in the picture)on the pads where you are having problems and relow as normal. If it

Hi Peter, Out of the 1.5 billion components we shipped last year, we had 3 components back for solderability issues. All 3 had been taken out of their vacuum packaging and left to oxidize for a number of weeks. We don't see it as an issue, but we

Dear all, Does anyone know how can I duplicate feeders in the same carriage of the HSP? The issue is: 2 sequenced feeders (101 and 102, for example) with the same part numbers. I need that, when feeder 101 ends, the machine should pick the componen

This is an issue that we are seeing a lot! It used to be that the primary-side (component-side...top-side) had most of the active components. It was simple: reflow bottom first. Now, we are seeing both sides of the assembly having the same amount of

Hi We are experiencing different failure modes between leaded and lead free through hole assemblies. The boards are PTH. In the case of lead free boards we are seeing fracturing of the component legs much earlier than we do with leaded assemblies. N

We don't have a gap between the lead and the pad after a SM joint is soldered. On our boards, this space is filled with the solder intended to attach the component to the board. How high do components sit above the surface of a board? Most people a

The final reflow profile really depends on which of the components are Pb-Free (such as BGA's) and the lowest temperature limit of the components. I'd be glad to share with you some ideas for solving your particular issue. Please contact me offline
