Good Afternoon, Is this by chance a Pb BGA on a RoHS board? We had an issue with a Pb BGA on a RoHS board where we experienced "ball drop" on the Pb BGA. This was due to the heat required to reflow the RoHS paste. It was more than the Pb BGA could

You nailed it. After some further investigation, it appears we had some old Pb version of this part that never got scrapped. Corrective action has been taken, and all the Pb parts have been disposed of. It makes sense that this would happen to the

Looking to find out what materials are commonly used for staking (aka. bonding) through hole components to the PCB in order to withstand vibration in a military (class 3) environment. Polyurethane coating would be applied after staking. I've found st

I have a strange problem with 1208 resistors flipping off placed position. I have the same reflow settings that I have used for years with the same solder paste. PAste is only a few months old and it was used just 1 week ago without problems. Some re

Thanks for the recommendations. We have settled on the new Juki CX-1. Juki states that the machine is a hybrid between a MCM placer and an SMT placer. This machine, if it is capable to do what Juki says it can do, is exactly the machine we need. Ma

Our GSM1 with Flex2 heads started to generate occasional error message: "Axis head 1 theta positive lead error during move absolute command" and then stop. After palm-down it runs again for some time. Everything looks fine, so I have no idea where

In addition to what Jeff wrote (I agree 100%) I would advise installing new theta drive belts on both heads. We had the same error at one time; if I remember right, I was told the new belts are better mat'l. It's likely your old ones are worn.
