Hello I am a circuit board designer and just wanted to ask if anyone is seeing the need to alter footprints for ROHS assembly. I also wanted to make sure that I have this particular issue correct. If your BGA is lead free then used solder paste with

Anyone have any experience with Displacement Soldering? We just came across a benchtop displacement soldering system, and I'm wondering how effective it might be for me. We're currently looking at a "best" solution for us right now for lead-free

You can using Ersa IR550A Rework System. The unit was NOT using any hot air process. IR550A Rework System is worldwide the only system with a genuine closed loop control system. Which employs the current temperature at the component in order to regul

Does your paste provider recommend a TAL? For the leaded and lead-free pastes that we use, the manufacturer recommends 60 seconds above liquidous. I note that your profile shows the TAL as 30 seconds, which may not be sufficient. That said, tho

I predict you will have no problems with your soldering. Remember that all plating is only a few microns thick and quickly washed away by the molten solder. We have used white tin, immersion gold, OSG, etc. for quite a while with leaded solder and

MyData PNP machines are good for high mix/low volume because change over time between jobs is lower than with many other PNP machines. They also handle parts on cut tape strips easily and you will have these with low volume runs. As for lead free o

800 degrees? Ouch! I find that every company that I do training for has at least one person that likes to go through one tip a day. The solution is tip tinning. Tell your operators to wipe the tip on a damp sponge often. Do not buy your sponges

Hi Sean, I have seen this issue with lead free component on Sn-Pb solder process, I don´t know if it´s your case. Some times, pins not reach the necessary T for solder due to lead free metalization and in other case due to a groud pad, with a big T d

Hello Bachman. SAC305 is the most common lead-free solder alloy, not only for wave soldering but also selective. Most of our selective customers (especially automotive) are using SAC305. What is more important than the alloy to consider is the flux

In my humble opinion: 1. Use of computers and software to support cad programming and industrial automation. 15 years ago I was making programs with a pair of calipers and a swing arm digitizer. Now in a few hours an entire line (2 P&P machines,
