On the Iron shaft? Why not on the connector to be protected. Actually now that I think back, I seem to remember seeing Kapton tape used on a part in a similar situation, but that I believe was a rework situation. Putting Kapton tape on every assembly

cALIBRATION OF SOLDERING IRON DEPENDS ON THE USAGE AND AGAIN DEPENDS ON THE PERFORMANCE.NORMALLY U CAN FIX THE CALIBRATION INTERVAL AS 3 MONTHS (OR) 6 MONTHS AND ANALYSE IF THERE IS ANY SUBSTANTIAL DRIFT IN THE READINGS(BETWEEN ACTUAL AND DISPLAYED).

Sn corrosion effects were studied for stainless steels, coated stainless steels, titanium, cast iron, and other materials. This study can be found in the SMT Library under "Equipment Impacts of Lead-Free Soldering" Electrovert uses a Melonite coating

Take a solder iron with some wire solder and attempt to tin the leads of the component. Look under magnifier or microscope. Did they wet? If not try fluxing them with liquid flux and then soldering again. Did they wet? If they did not then you may wa

I'm looking for some input on a pay scale for experienced SRT/DRS operators. They do not do any profiling or process work - only remove/site prep/replace type work, along with any 'special' jobs like trace repair, masking repair, etc. They're current

Enough said? Perhaps. One other question...how committed to SMT equipment is Hitachi? Big company...lots of irons in the fire. Willing to put up with a division with eroding sales (especially in the US)? I suppose Hitachi will continue to use UIC to

It seems like the break is happening between the sn and ni. The parts are dull in appearance will not take solder even with an iron after they come off so it leads me to believe that there is only ni left on the part. The parts are liquidous for ab

This is easy! More zones means bigger process window and more thru-put depending on board size. More zones is always a good thing unless you're stapped for floor space. Just remember - the bigger the oven, the more it gets blammed for process prob

Don't forget the possibility of causing component damage in addition to board damage. Reworking a ceramic capacitor with a hot iron can cause microcracks in teh capacitor. You probably won't find those until much later in the process, maybe even in
