I have been soldering 0603 components on the bottom side using a glue and wave solder process for a long time. Bridging has not been a common problem. However, it is inherent on the design engineers to follow good manufacturability planning when la

hello guys ; we are using some standard selective wave soldering unit used in lined ; the drawback of a such machine is 1/the speed which is quiet low (the board is coming on position through the conveyor, then the head delivering the solder moves s

Hi, Lots of good answers and I am sure questions in the above. I have too many questions to really know whether your idea is a good one, as it could be, or one that will cause you more problems. Based on the size of the PWB that you will buy and t

Printer and Pick/Place manufacturers will often take used equipment in trade from potential customers that want to buy new, if they know they can sell it. Inquire to the manufacturers for used or refurbished models they sell and support. If you buy a

I have an underfill material which takes 6 hours to cure. It works great, better than any other underfill I have ever used. A vertical cure oven is too expensive. I am currently using batch style ovens and opening the oven door as additional produ

Hi Paul, you got to find the reason first before any measures can be taken. You have to determine wether it happend somehow at your site or at the boardhouse, you can�t blame them without reason. As long as it is suspected that more of those panels

Paul, I have (as many have) come across this problem due to misregistration of resist at the PCB fab. You didn't say if these boards are inexpensive double sided or costly multis. I know this shouldn't make a difference on quality but I would tend t

Hi I'd like to ask how everyone routes their differential pairs. I'm not about to condem anyone's software ( SW Vendors should maybe take a look at the answers ) but I'm interested how PCB Designers route a board with 256 pairs, 150 microns width an

As Wolfang says about slightly bent legs, handling is of the essence. Are these devices decanted into another tray for your machine. It may be worthwhile doing a "movement" chart for these components. Do not explain why or when you are doing it beca

Mike, It sounds like you have a serious problem, I don't know much about drag soldering or what your specific soldering problem is with your present supplier. I do know that with a conventional solder machine these leads won't even make it through
