Hi Steve ... I found nothing in the manufacturers "paper" to help. Comments are: * I agree. No blobs. Solder on the thermal pad should me minimized. Too much solder will float the component. Old timers used to talk about 50-80% coverage. * If you'

Our customer is asking for a solder ball dispersion test on our string solder for rework. The do not provide a test spec, only the attached diagram? has anyone seen this before? It looks like just pushing the solder against the iron and counting th

Please take a look at the model DEN-ON RD500V series machine , it can handle 700 x500 mm (28" x 20 ") and can also be customized for larger PCB. The company is quite reliable (55 years old) and makes very strong equipment. http://denondic.co.jp/en/

24") The RD500V has three heaters and it uses a combination of hot gas and IR. The area heater can range from 3600 watts to 4800 watts with a bottom localized heater that is 1 000 watts which has adjustable z movement. The price of the RD500V series

What if you were this guy [PeteC] and you knew this batch of boards had some goofball issue that messed with product quality, increased rework and all that AND you still had to run them? I've had to eat from the pie before. I'll bet you have also.

I actually have a quote for the larger TF2800 from the rep that came to do the demo on the smaller model. There was talk of us sending hardware to PACE for them to see if they could get the larger model to work for us, but the decision was made not

BTW - in our testing on housings with Sn42Bi57 paste, it took 240 seconds to reach 140C on an aluminum module with a mass of 0.75 lbs. This was from ambient and only using machine preheating before having the top heater turn on to peak at 162C. Sa

We’ve done similar projects. FR-811 with camera system for alignment. More cost effective than split vision. Bottom heat uses solid surface for contact heating similar to heating microwave module chassis. Our rep can arrange a demo if you haven’t

I forgot to update this. Customer insisted on reflowing SIM card directly to PCB, as per their previous CEM. It worked. No deformation of the SIM card - assembly works - records data to SIM card. Note that using hot air reflow type (rework station)d

Very broad topic. Designers own design. Manufacturing engineers can suggest design changes based on DFM, DFX DFA analysis. These are suggested, so the board is manufacturable with very low to no rework. Both design and manufacturing have their expert
