Thanks CK. You are right the 200C constraint is absurd, but it's the reality, and the worst is this kind of components will go through lead-free profile. Do you or any body here experiencing the same problem? any body using Vapor phase and having suc

If I read this right, it says 50 seconds or less above 200C. It doesn't say you cannot go above 200 C. Right? if so we do it all the time. We have some Quality gurus here that always blame our ovens for everything form a didle-I-Joe to a Dam-If-I

So correct me if I'm wrong: you are using a conventional oven (not VP, otherwise you must have mentioned), your big electrolytic caps go through a lead-free profile, which requires 30sec minimum at 230, but your time above 200C on the caps is less th

LISTEN this is quite a soar subject to me.i have old wounds too from these capacitators and argued with the darn engineers at my old place of employment that if they only stuck to wave and through � hoel stuff, they wouldn�t be in this pickle. IF the

We recently (6 months ago) started production with our Samsung SM421 w/ side tray handler and love it so far. Software can be somewhat buggy sometimes but they are working on it I am told. The side tray handler makes a huge difference not eating up a

Chunks, Thanks for covering my back. Except from being able to wave the big green flag what benefits does lead-free have? Once the green flag comes down we will see what a mess lead free has made. I hope that all the sales people that claim to mak

A new fact is that some products that were ok a week ago are now no longer compliant. http://www.rsjtechnical.com/NewsDecaBDE.htm Deca_BDE is no longer exempted. How do you plan on finding out what products have it, so you can throw them out?

It really doesn't matter that military has an exemption. They're still stuck with the same tin whisker risk since the component manufacturers have switched to service the consumer electronics market which are their large volume customers. The same i
