I think I still have the Service manual for 4796 if You are interested. If so You can have it for free. This is the manual that UIC/Sanyo tech engineers use, but maybe it is no good for you since it will req. training on the machine and also know exa

Greetings everyone. We are currently doing some experimentation with solder paste printing over ground planes. In this application, the entire perimeter of the PCB is a ground plane. It's about 4mm wide and wraps around the whole PCB; There is no so

I have seen similar things like this before with Solder Resist redepositig back on the pads, this is a clear residue very hard to see. Solder resist will obviously resist solder adhering to it. If you rework the boards then the heat of the iron will

that's a pretty cool idea, I like some thinking 'outside the box '! 1. I don't think picking it up and placing it will be much of a problem. once the rivet is placed it will be held in place by the paste. However, you would need to make a tray that

I am seeing poor quality solder joints, mostly on 0402 components. The problem is that while the pad on the pcb is getting fully wetted, the solder is not flowing up the sides of the 0402 component, i.e. the 0402 lead is somewhat de-wetting. The re

Wow im amazed by the amount of replies I got, thank you all for your time. Davef, Mika, and eetour Thank you all for the websites, I've found googling homebrew to be most useful there really is alot of content, too bad I didn't search for that in th

Hi everyone, I need to connect a cylindrical disc device (piezo ceramic sensor) to the PCB trace without using high temp solder. I plan to use "3M™ XYZ-Axis Electrically Conductive Adhesive Transfer Tape 9719" to connect the device to the PCB trace

I know nothing about Xbox specific rework, but have a lot of experience with PCB repairs. "...maybe think its a bad idea now not knowing what im doing" Don't get discouraged, it's a learning process. If it was that easy everyone would be doing it.

Hello all, One of our resistor arrays is becoming detached from its balls after reflow. This is the second instance of this happening. The balls are clearly soldered to the board, but the actual package is coming off (package pads are quite bare).

We are evaluating Vapor Phase right now, and there is something that bothers me a bit. The machine has a preheating stage where we can bring the board, components and paste up to temp to dry the paste out before descending into the Vapor. The heatin
