Hi, It sounds like your a little new at profiling, and can be difficult to do well. We purchased a KIC profiler that has software that will take your profile data and tell you the best oven temperature settings and conveyer speed to use. You need

Hi Mike, I haven't tried the 0201s with a Hyrda, but after seeing 20 reviews of your message without a response, I'll try and share my experience with 0402s on a non-Hydra machine. The 0402s are slow, but I managed to get some speed by maxing out

Hi All, The change over to lead-free is as easy or as difficult as you want to make it The big problem I see with this lead-free transition is that there is no benchmark of acceptability and no defect data (yet) related to visual appearance of a sol

There is learning on all brands requiring fine tuning the test parameters. The first point is not to allow defects to escape. Many brands can do a good job with preventing escapes. The struggle with all the brands becomes false calls. The companies r

Our machines can't use 'cad data' for fids. I'm intimately familiar with these machines as I've been using them for 11 years. Most likely, it's a limitation of our machines/software, whereby it requires symetrical local fids. When we place a PCB on t

Hi Patrick, I agree, there've been many anomolies this Winter. I've spent the last 6 months at my company's Chicago branch, and temperatures throughout December were very comparable to the desert heat of Riyadh! I hate Al Gore, the guy's a total to

I am looking for data on the yield of printed circuit board assemblies so that I can judge if our SMT line is performing up to typical industry standards. Following I will describe the details of the assembly and what our yield has been. Each board

Normally someone would have replied to tell you to do a search of the archives. I've read at least 4 or 5 different threads dealing with baking out PWB's, but none were for this special material. First, have you contacted the manufacturer of the PW

Hi, The verbiage states lead finish on components and not solder used in assembly. I have found nothing that states that Swatch got an exemption. Although the 650 micron pitch spec seems to have come from the data Swatch presented in their execpti
