I manufacture ESD supplies such as smocks and conduct ESD audits from time to time. With that said, here is my deal on smocks...ESD smocks work well to shield harmful static charges on clothing such as wool, silk, and synthetic fabrics. It is like we

We have used the SN100C for over a year now with fanastic results. We use the SAC305 for SMT and SN100C wire exclusively. There are no problem mixing the alloys. I am also on the commitee for the NASA testing. The SN100C did out perform SAC and SnPb

Mike, Have you contacted Universal Instruments yet? If not you should call them. If I am thinking of the same oven, this oven was manufactured by ETS (Energy Technology Systems) or http://www.energytechnologysystems.com. I take it you bought this

Hi Criss, It is Universal 4816 CRS.It have touch screen and "Keypad sound" speaker.Each time you touch the screen it give nice sound.I have tried with universal in EU but still waiting for an answer. It is from ETS.On all the control PCBs it is ETS p

Heat guns used improperly will definitely damage components. You must have a controlled heat gun that can be set to the max temp you want pb =215C max, Pbfree maybe 240C max. This heat gun must not be able to be adjusted or you must have total trus

At the wave, you should collect data on the critical process parameters. The cliche being, it's better to control your process via SPC versus performing SPC on defect data. Perform a DoE to determine which variable interactions have the greatest eff

SPC was a fad of the '80's and has been mis-used by the igonorant for decades now! Doing SPC on defects is a case in point. Hell I implemented wave SPC programs before eating breakfast at 2 previous companies, and they worked great..resulting in 25

Yes, doing the DoEs on your wave to achieve optimum settings that deliver the best results on your worst board is correct method. If not clear on the process, there are still wave solder process classes out there you can attend or hire in-house. If y

If your component meets ANSI/J-STD-002 - Solderability Tests for Component Leads, Terminations, Lugs, Terminals, and Wires, then the problem is at your customer's operation. If the problem is at your customer's operation, it's very difficult to anal

I am putting together an internal oven calibration procedure. I am interested in how stringent your oven calibration process is. Really what I am putting out is a verification process and a calibration process for the event that verification should
