Sounds to me like you have one of two problems. First would be the pasting of the board. Possiblilty exists that the machine/operator didn't wash the stencil thouroughly, causing a permanent partial blockage in that one corner. Second thing could be

Hello, Can anyone comment on the implications of small sodler balls under a leadless device such as LLP with a centre thermal land. I believe that we did not make a good reduction and the paste squeezed out of the centre land and balled up under the

I'm curious about one thing. What kind of components are on the bottom, how many are there, and how are you processing (in particular how do you get glue and paste on) them? Edited to add: You shouldn't have any problems (assuming your tooling heigh

I agree with URL. We made a mistake years ago paying a consultant for something that can be done your in-house technical staff. The consultant took a bunch of notes and suggested we all wear "finger cots". His solution didn't help us with our prob

You're right Dave, a GOOD company would include that in the deal. But our purchsing people get pats on backs for saving a buck or two here and there...so. It really hurts when they save 30 bucks on bulk parts versus tape and reel. Then we spend hu

Our solder paste machine has a squeegee problem. After passing over a board, the squeegees don't go all the way back up to their origin state. Then we are getting a timeout error and have to return the machine back to its origin (manually), and pass
