I made progress and almost acceptable results by adding heat to the bottom of zone 4 HOWEVER, the core problem I uncovered last night/this morning was that the #4 top side blower had failed. I think this is the key why I was having so much trouble.

It's been my experience that most flat pack land patterns have far too much exposed toe. It accomplishes nothing for the reliability of the solderjoint. And often the ends of the leads are sheared and not very solderable anyway. Anything more than

I have a board with the above problem from our PCB supplier. After they applied the solder mask and run the PCB's to HASL process, the solder mask bubbled on one side of the PCB making the solder mask thickness higher and PCB looking awkward. They s

Take a look at this. Remember, these are only guidlines and can not replace any paste specs. As Real Chunks said, a profiler will be of HUGE help. We use this to determine what our top side temps are and to see if we have any problems with heat sen

Hey Patrick, thanks. The area that is dark (half circle) is where the camera was. It is the same color as the above. But you may be correct still. I also noticed that the majority of the solder balls were along the "Dark" blue depression around the

You're using a SAC305 chemistry? Double check your liquidus temp! Your profile shows a liquidus temp of 217 degrees C. SAC305 is not eutectic. (It doesn't transition from paste to liquid instantly). It goes thru a "pasty" stage. We use a temp of 221

Hi All, I am currently in the process of selecting a new stencil printer and have narrowed it down to the MPM125 or DEK Horizon 03i.. We re a UK medium volume production facility running quite a high mix of double sided PCB`s. W

0.001969" You say that 0.008" of "slop" is un-doable; hence, the reasons for our failures. Any basis for that statement? Are rated accuracies from placement equipment manufacturers typically "exgaggerated?" 2. On PCB Fab side of things, what is

We are having some issues with a RF PCB aprox 1" x 1". The pads are in the bottom of the PCB and it goes on the Top side of the mother board the pads of the RF board are like a BGA (square pads)and we have troubles to make the proper welding in the
