Our design engineers were always a pain in the keester when they wanted to prototype a new board. They wanted to use a production oven. AND they wanted to use it NOW!!! [Like we have time for that foolishness.] So, we bought them a Oster toaste

Paragraph 7.3 of ISO 9000/2000 seems to say that you must have such a process. Developing this process from scratch will be very painful. Consider employing a seasoned veteran. Look here for Earl Moon�s DFM book: http://www.pcbspecialist.com/Epoddfm.

I feel your pain. Your company may already be using Kapton tape labels for their board serial numbers labels. Kapton is able to withstand repeated wash and heat cycles, and can be printed on a typical Zebra printer. The key to a successful and accura

Hi There. I use to suffer the same pain,specially when i had limited board quantities. You can use an antiestatic transparency attached to the board using Kapton Tape,than place the double sticky tape. This work perfect,kapton tape residues clean ve

Thanks folks !! I'll experiment with the bottom side heaters. Unfortunatly I don't think our Vitronics-Soltec oven has the option for adjusting the heater fan speeds. And I'll check the conveyor chains. This is our first project using 0402 parts, wh

I am in agreement with Steve. I take great pains to ensure that my tape jobs do not come undone. As someone else noted I also preload the tip to the board so it stays in contact. I still need to ask why do we need to care about this tiny differenc

Dax, More than likely your moveable rail is slipping on the X-Y table. Make sure there is no oil where the breaks grab the table. Sometime the breaks wear out and need replaced. The contact surface on the break lever is only a couple of thou.. We hav

All, This is a bit off the beating track but its starting to be a real pain. I am unable to view PDF's in explorer... I just get a small image in the top left corner. It means I have to download pdf datasheets from another PC . I am not lazy but it

"cunning trap"? Did someone say roadtrip and beer? [Sorry Chunks, I go cheap.] A simpler, less expensive, and less painful solution is: * http://www.ipc.org * Knowledge * Technical Resources * IPC Free Documents Available For Download * IPC-1720A

I feel your pain - we do the same. My favorite: no extra panels or boards for profile and due to the fact that we're behind on an order, a first article of a fairly complicated board goes from 10 to an order for 500. Myself and production takes th
