| Hi Folks. Has any Process Engineer here done a complete evaluation or controlled experiment for VOC-FREE Flux? Our goal here at CEBUKid, Inc. is to implement a VOC-FREE process. We have all the necessary (OPTIFLUX) spray equipment, and we're cur

Most of you guys probably wish TH would just go away. Maybe for some of you it has. We have some older but very successful WAN controller boards using TH parts so we get to use automated equipment for this. We have an Amistar CI-3000 inserter that so

I've heard of a series of labels that absorb moisture at different rates and/or change appearance when a specific saturation level is reached. If such labels exist and if they could be correlated to the exposure limits of specific moisture sensitivit

Points in response are: * Microstencils work fine with paste, although they are a little fussy to use. * Never have used microstencils for flux. * Like Hussman, we dab the uBGA into a puddle of tacky flux and then place it on the board. * On contro

Sure, it�s fine to use the proper amount of flux and no solder when reworking BGA. Recognize that these new solder connections have less metal and a lower standoff than similar BGA solder connections that have not been reworked. This undoubtedly

Tim, have you considered how efficiency software plays a role in the matrix? Most software from equipment suppliers tends to be programming driven. I have run across a software product from Timms that does an excellent job of controling things lik

Hi Yngwie Have you got a reflow oven yet. If not, forget about complicated profiling with test runs or reflow trackers. We've got a nice oven with integrated temperature-feedback system. You build any profile you want and the oven will adjust its hea
