Even though this is a "no clean" flux, are you (or the customer) cleaning the boards? If this is truly a low signal level device, there is no way you will get away without cleaning the flux residue. I do a lot of low-level hardware, and we have to

For years all our R&D for high temp applications (automotive underhood electronics) has shown that Pb-free, at our max temps, doesn't have the reliability of SnPb. Fortunately, for us, EoLV (End of Life Vehicle) legislation in Europe was enacted bef

Hi, Go for a very "slow down" turrent speed of 50 % and then see what is happening? It sounds that You could face a timing belt problem. I have seen this before. Another thing on this machine is whenever a slitghest misalignment between the the diffe

It would make sence for Swatch I guess, they probably dont use any component over 0,6 pitch. Didnt swatch just say they would stop production if they didnt get the exemption? Thats probably the main reason they got it, otherwise all this RoHS crap

Dave, we have the same issue running a new bare board through the oven with no paste. If there is an imcompatibility with our flux would it still manifest itself when there is not flux? Im sure there is some residual flux in the oven all the time. We

Good afternoon everyone, We have a customer that wants to specify "cleaning processes" on a board that typically has a "no clean process". Normally, I would not care, but I have one component on this board for which I question the cleaning process.

Is anyone using standard FR-4 material for ROHS? All I have ever seen to indicate the need to go to a high tg/td board is that the material may fail after repeted rework. I have a customer that is trying to use IS-410 and it is causing electrical pro

For those of you who use via holes as test points, and the via holes must be filled at the wave, is it necessary to have a "dome" on every single test point, or is it sufficient to have the via "filled" with solder? The ICT preson here insists that

What aload of rubbish - prove it, we have over 320 users in the UK alone using the SACP0307 solder with great results, and the biggest advantage they have is they can multiple source the solder not stuck to one company who has purchased the patent an
