We used to use an APS Gold GF-120 before we went lead-free and the HT version came out. It worked fine for low volume and proto runs though not as much control over the profile as an oven with more zones. We actually had a batch oven from Bomir befor

Reworking BGA's

Electronics Forum | Wed Sep 21 17:53:19 EDT 2011 | action_101

I would like some input on reworking BGA's and the best method. I have reworked BGA's since 1998 using both micro stencils and just flux dipping the parts. I have reworked SN/PB and lead-free (AIM NC258) BGA's for the last 8 yrs. with just flux. I ha

orientation of polarised smd components on reels/tapes

Electronics Forum | Mon Jul 25 09:11:25 EDT 2016 | spoiltforchoice

There 2 main rival standards for orientation in tape and because you can't really trust manufacturers to stick to one or the other or something else entirely it is always wise to check the datasheet. Typically an SOIC will have pin 1 the same end as

We saw your profile, which in my opinion looks alright based on the guideline from the vendor. Can you tell us more about the joints that you cleaned? Are they showing nice wetting and nice and shiny finish? How about your stencil thickness? From my

You'll have to do at least 2up array since most conveyors won't handle boards less than 2in wide. I'm assuming it's FR4 lead free temperature material and PCB's are scored in the panel. The 13-16in lengths aren't a problem other than depaneling. With

We are currently experiencing an issue with one of our reflow ovens producing large amounts of flux crystals in the end of zone 12 and entrance of cooling zone. This has been going on for roughly around 4 years now, we are using Senju M705 lead free
