Dose anybody know of a method of preventing board sag in the wave process. We have a 2 year old Deltawave. The product we are running is a one sided 10in x 12in panel of 6 PCB's. Pin headers and connectors are near all of the edges. Our current board

... and don't forget proper stencil alignment. Invariably I find most bridging problems for fine pitch parts, etc. is caused by lousy alignment. The alignment must be verified under magnification, using the naked eye is not good enough. Use at least

We have had two jobs that have the same issues with DPAK's sliding off their pads during reflow. We tried to resolve this by placing epoxy on the side of the component to create a "dam". However this is not repeatable enough to be a quality resolutio

Im with Pete, Zero defects. We have high defect rate for many reasons. No line tech, operators set up and run then when QA reports defects engneers are called. Not to make people mad but our process engneers are lacking practical experance to fix pro

Hi Erik, looks like there's not much appetite for this debate on this forum. Possibly because not many use them and aren't in a position to confirm or deny what we know. We use our pumps 6 days a week, 24hrs a day so it's a very dynamic proc

You don't want dedicated tooling. Make sure your machine comes with front and rear dams and plenty of side chucks and magnetic support pins. The best option for these machines is the side snugger option but it doesn't sound like your machine has that

Pressure printing systems Conventional stencil printing techniques have fundamental limitations as regards paste handling: The volume of paste available for printing is limited, so frequent replenishment is necessary Paste is difficult to c

How thick are their requirements? A barrier can be made using peelable latex. That would then require manual or automatic dispense of latex to create a dam. Then you should be able to use an automated dispense system with a large orifice and flood
