There are several types of lasers to do laser soldering. Panasonic also has a high intensity light that can solder as well. I've tried em' all and two over whelming things stand out when it comes to this type of soldering. #1 is preheat. It seems

We understand the problem of trying to coat over RTV. We have seen the same problem with acrylic and urethane coatings not wanting to stick to RTV. Some acrylics seem to be worse than urethane. Since this is a new product, may be you could pot your

Common RTV does out-gas causing corrosion. NASA allows use of non/low-out-gassing RTV. Try the following companies: * Ablestik Electronic: Materials, 20021 Susana Road, Rancho Dominguez, California 90221 U.S.A., 310-764.4600, F 310-764-2545 * Arlon

Sorry, I haven't checked the forum for quite some time. HS and SP require a line computer. The computer in the machine is the same computer than the line computer out of the HP 300 serie. HP discontinued manufacturing these computers in 1996. The 332

Sounds to me like they are thinking since they have a gold board that it must be processed lead free. This kind of thing is happening all over since OEMs are starting to think about pb free and sending their purchasing and engineering to these semin

Hi Carl / Bill, I seem to miss your point regarding disclosure. As I CLEARLY stated, it is the perception of damage more than the possibility of damage. As a twenty year veteran of de-fluxing systems, I can assure you that there remains enough con

We received about 5K assembly boards from china. They left flux residu on top of the board and the flux they use was different than us. RESULT ... we use a translucent cylicon to cover the board and it was not possible to dry the cylicon because of

Steve, Thanks for Your replay and I agree with You. But sometimes I find it hard to always have the optimum in every aspect of our high mix/low volume electronics assembly production. We also do a lot of prototype production. In this case we had to g

I think he did mentioned the board size in the inital thread: "265mm x 207mm pcb", but maybe it was not clear written. I have a question about rework and pre-heat: is it necessary to have the pre-heater to cover the whole board size, even if you onl

My experience with different size boards and pre-heaters. The perfect world (right?) you would saturate the complete pcb with bottom pre-heat. But it is difficult with repair and rework equipment, not to mention the expense and foot print of large pr
