Hi, We are an OEM, so we deal with all stages of the pipeline from parts purchasing, to assembly to sales through our channel, and the biggest thing we have been worrying about is our inventory and bom conversions, as I don't want to be stuck with l

We are currently struggling with a particularly difficult component selection form our designers. This is a custom BGA, 592 balls, metal cover with a very large bead of adhesive using to retain the cover. We have had significant fallout (greater th

The Juki 2060 can have both front and rear trolleys and you do not loose any feeder locations. My question was why can't the Assembleon put trolley on the rear? I recently visited a friend at a company that used a lot of Assembleon and compared run

Thanks for the input Guys Yeah the not so knowledgable customer does not like to residues for cosmetic resons. The flux is for lead free process, of the no clean and water soluable type. We have explained to him that technically the residues do not

I have a less than perfectly designed pcb requiring double sided lead free reflow. Several components from either side will detatch using the standard process. If I was using Sn63Pb37 I would just dispense some adhesive after paste and cure at the r

Well, my first thought is that you need to consider lead-free rework. Depending on the alloy, some stations may not be able to reach the correct temperature. The best stations I have seen have a prism & shows both the pads and the BGA on a single v

I would suggest you do the following: get a sample / scrap board that you will be reflowing, attach thermocouples at various locations on the board, send the board to APS or whomever. Ask them to run a profile based on your solder pastes manufactur

Grant, I personally disagree that lead-free can't be reversed. The reason it went that far is because lead has a bad reputation (lead in gas and in paint)and was probably assumed by the European green politicians as equally bad in solders. When they

The NexLev connector is built in a stripline construction, providing a continuous ground plane for each signal contact. The connectors come as tenrow connectors with 100, 200, or 300 positions at possible stacking heights from 10 mm to 30 mm. Technic
