IPC-A-610D Section 5, shows a variety of photographs of: * Good lead-free solder connections * Lead-free soldering anomalies Hot Tear / Shrink Hole is one such anomaly. This shrinkage effect appears primarily on wave-soldered joints, but can also

A skilled hand-soldering operator can easily do the rework. Applying liquid flux and raking the iron tip across the leads removes bridges. Removal and replacement of QFP-64 can be done manually. This is of course for very low volume of this type QFP-

Hi, I am running a circuit board that needs a part to be put on it after cleaning and before conformal coating. the only problem is that after cleaning and hand assembly of the part, there is a thin whitish residue in the ckt board that one can see w

I would say it depends on the process requirements for the board and the reliability requirements as has already been mentioned. If you do two-sided reflow you might allow for fewer rework attempts, for example. If it's a medical device you might on

Several suggestions. Your hands may be tied but here goes. 1. Doctor your stencil so that pads are not shared etc and reduce the apertures more that what you would normally. This may stop one pad wetting into another etc. 2. The use of a Pb-free sol

Hello Darby, because of the machine configuration it depents very strong on the feeder configuration and on the board if the 3 heads more give you so much more CPH. Realistic it will only be 1-2000 CPH more in realistic operation. On the other hand

Hi We are trying to solder a a contact whose base material is stainless steel, this is then nickel striked with a gold plating of upto 3 microns. We are trying to hand solder this to a standard 1.6 FR4 PCB with a HASL finish. We are seeing problems

Hello, Thank you for answer. We are using second hand machine. What do you mean saying that �stencil is not height on all 4 corners�? Does it have some inclination between corners? I mean that three corners of stencil are matching with PCB fine and

Hello, I am looking to change from hand soldering to a dip soldering method. The board is double sided (only one side has components though) and has all through hole components currently. I would just like to know if dip soldering would be the best c
