Check your stencil apertures making sure they are trapazoidal and smooth. I have hadjobs where the laser stencil was improperly cut (poor laser settings leaving a rough hole even after electropolish. Be sure to specify a .0005 trapazoid in your ste

We do not bake any of our boards prior to wave solder. If we did we would have one heck of a large oven. I would assume you are concerned about moisture sensitive components. In most cases your top side parts should only get to 80 degrees centigarde

Temps are related to the components/PCBs being soldered. I am not aware of any Industry standard. If you are soldering flex circuits, .020" boards etc.. We use 500 deg tips a little thicker PCB/lead we go to 600, and so on. We never exceed 800 in a

The other thing to look at is the component spec, most will state a max, e..g SMT ceramic Caps are actually rated to be hand soldered at 500F!... fine if it's a light PCB but if it's a big thing with lot's of grounding.... Teh component suppliers re

Hello all, One of our PCB manufacturers coated a through hole connecters vias with solder mask. The only IPC references that comes close to describing this problem is 2.9.2 Registration to holes, and subsequent specification 6.3.1 PTH � Vertical fil

Dave, I�m talking about the 75% vertical fill of solder IPC 6.3 criteria (B), and 6.3.1 Fig 6-5. I also referred to the annular ring of the Plated-Through-Hole, being coated with solder mask. Semantics, yes I did refer to the Plated-Through-Hole (Sup

Dave, You stated that an unfilled via is of greater strength than a filled or partially filled via. I posted to another thread recently and I stated that a filled via was of greater strength than an unfilled. I was tought (incorrectly?) that a fill
