We are building class 3 products, using no clean on wave and selective solder machines. Both processes are producing micro solder balls between the leads of through hole components. I have searched the site and haven't found any recent threads on h

Thanks all for the advice so far. I'm definitely considering the 4C & the TP9-U. I've also seen a Zeva 575, Philips Eclipse, & Juki 720. These seem to be a little more expensive. Any feedback on these machines - is the extra expense worth it? How e

Had same problem with SOT23 (two different PNs and Suplliers) problem was random (AVG 0,15%). Parts are RoHS but soldered by SnPb, Lead frame Plating (e3)according to IPC-J-STD609 it means Sn pure (check the label on reel), additional info, it is S

Hello all, Just had a problem where the solder paste does not want to stick to the pad, thru the stencil. We have run this board for years with no problem, and this new lot of boards is giving us problems. I know it's a board problem because they

We are currently using an ACE K.I.S.S. 104. We used SN100 solder with AIM NC265 flux (no clean, alcohol-based). Also, we use topside preheat at 100 degrees C and a 6mm nozzle (as big as we can go with this application). The PCB has a matte finish as

Hello ! I don't know if this helps but here goes, I have here 2 mydatas one a TP9-4 and the other MY12, on the TP9-4 we have TPSys 2.4 and we use a AM8 feeder magazine, when we bought the MY12 it came with TPSys 2.1, thinking we can use the AM8 feede

Hi All, I know that is thread hasn't seen activity in a year or so... I'm having a similar issue in configuring a line. I see that the IEC addr is called version in the real.ma file. This is not helping me since I apparently have two machines that

Prob totally screwed the pooch... Got more than a little frustrated with not being able to get the stupid software to do what I thought it should do, anyway figured maybe the IEC port was the problem - I have a couple of spare cpu cards, so I swapped

To get real conductivity in your traces you will need to remelt your copper or silver tracks. This means 850oC. The other method is plating at low temps, or etching. Epoxies like all carbon based compounds vaporize at 400oC. Next problem epoxy fibre

Hi, This is easy. If your just doing prototypes, then you could get by with a syringe of solder paste and a hear gun. You can put down a little solder paste on each page and then place the passives and heat gun the board. If you have other active p
