Hi, Are you coating the bottom of the palette with flux? What's the material of the palette. I have not seen that, but we did have some weird problems when we did not add flux on a virgin palette, but once it dirtied up a little it was ok. We had

It seems that every time we do maintenance on our CP6 windmills, we have a lot of problems with nozzles sticking up inside the holders. It seems to happen for a while, then it goes away after we run for a bit. We follow the Fuji maintenance procedure

We also have 4796's and 4791's and have had the same issues with 0402 parts.. All the suggestions listed in the last post will help quite a bit. We found our biggest problem was the board supports due to the operators using the wrong type of pins ,

Nozzle size is probably the main issue, but it could be a problem with the vacuum level too. Vacuum level should be a minimun of 20 in HG. Also verify that you have 85 PSI going into the machine. A lot of times, the paste in the nozzle is due to t

You can also try the Florida Circtech website or call them direct. There is a min. thickness requirement and if the board house does not follow it you will end up with scrap boards after the second pass (from experience). I even sent blank boards to

In reviewing the myriad of BGA reliability tech papers there seems to be little commonality in the type of test protocols. There are tests that are industry specific, device vendor specific and customer specific. What guidance in terms of minimum me

I can't answer your question directly, but we're an automotive supplier and we don't do dual reflow with QFPs because of their moisture sensitivity level. We don't have the processes in place to manage the time between first and second pass so we'd

I am not an expert however, I don't see any issues with this. Those joints of nearby components will melt and solidify back once they go below 183 C. Don't see how this could present quality issues as components may pass through reflow several time

how funny... we just bought a up1500, no manuals/install cd, and we need to do the same thing. i was hoping that by removing /sigpro/user.pwl and /sigpro/permis.lst, and all references to them in sigpro.ini and sig1500.ini it'd let me in, but no luc

I use the solder sample pcb that comes w/ each batch of boards. We ask our pcb vendor to send 1 pcb for solder testing w/ each batch. This is usually a pcb that is completely done it just didn't pass electrical test @ the final stage. I kill two bird
