Chris, it was cunning of you to think of this sequencing solution, but speaking from my lofty position of King of the Workaround, I can only suggest this - forget it. Sorry to be blunt about it but you've said that your operators aren't motivated, al

Might C, There is no thinking about it when it came to Aegis for me. I switched out from Unicam to Aegis and have been happy ever since. Thier tech support is always ready and willing to help me and the software was operator friendly. I also use it

Are you talking about small 'volcanos' that burst through PTH solder connections? If so, you have moisture outgassing through the PTH barrels: * Plating on the hole of your bare board is too thin. It should be greater than 1 thou [25um]. * Your bak

Awhile back there was a thread here about needing to pick a BGA-type component that is dead-bug (ball-side up). The OP was looking for a special nozzle tip that will conform around the balls in order to pick the component. There were a few response

Many trials conducted so far from single sided to Mixed technology dual wave with our LFB227/S 0.3Ag silver Lead free. Results are excellent, some say better than 63/37. One continueing problem though is the age old area of undercured resist and runn

I'd be interested to hear what the PWB vendors have to say about your comments. This is something I have questioned before, but I fail to see how this problem can be proved. Because of all the technicalites of the wave soldering process, it is someti
