Hi Grant, Boy, how do I say this - I might have to agree with Wave Master Larry. (Yeah, yeah - I know; Davef and Dr. Shocker will "burn me" again) "We" also solder large thru-hole connectors on with a selective solder machine. They measure 4 by 8

Last week, when we turned on our IP3, we received an error on our IP3, which read "Fatal Error with VP Turn Power Off" We had been running product the day before, and the day after we received this error. The function keys are locked and will not w

Agree!! Where is Your thermocouple-probes attacded and can we get the info from this? Delta-T of the comp. is very, very important! The single most important smt-process step is the profiling/recipy and as a result of this, this poor package will cor

Hi, "glass wicking failure" we don't know what this is, but we suspect that the reflow process could very well be the root cause for some of our pcba with micro vias failure. Micro vias pcb we know to well (we don't like them at all). There are No p

What year is your machine and what year is your Electric Drawing? My machine is 1989 and so is my drawing. I do not have a SIP-1750 drawing. The IP went through several changes during its production so your machine may not match mine. The CON I/F

Good morning, (1) This depends on component type. In general it would be better to have fully populated board. Or at least you should mount components with different thermal mass. You should place TC�s at three points at least: component with high t

Pallet angle is usually pretty good. Lead length is also another good thing to keep as short as possible. Air Knives don't work that well. Also check your board. Make sure you have solder resist between each and every thru-hole pad. If the board

One of our customers that always was going for Ni/Au surface finish on RoHS PCB and our processs was adjusted for that, "whithout any problem". Recently they decided to switch to another surface finsh: PbFree HASL. What is that? Imersion tin/silver?

It sounds like something is a little off here. ROHS compatible and ROHS capable parts are going to be ok with a leaded solder paste and processing unless you are building high reliability product.( some are going to argue that even high rel products

Anyone ever design an external thermocouple that connected back to an enclosed PCB? If so, how did you make the interconnect or solder joint to the board? Did you change metals to a solder friendly material? The problem we have is an external t-
