Hi: Use the whip on your operators.!!! Serious: The assembly should know how much time they have left to process those parts safely. Keep them as long as possible in the drybags, reclose the bags immediately after getting the needed parts out. In t

Neil, We currently use only visual inspection with a magnified lamp and actually brush the board after the wave process to help knock off any solder balls. You wanna use an ESD sensitive brush material. Camel hair is what we use. It works real wel

We used to have our PLCC,s, TSOP's and QFP's (0.65 mm pitch) Land Patterns designed in square corners. Some of our products have them designed in Full Radius Corners. As of now, with the two different designs running in our production floor, we can't
