Can anyone advise me what are the types of contaminants which can be present on a printed circuit board at the very beginning of a SMT line. Of these contaminants, are any of them detrimental to the SMT process (i.e. label application, or solder pas

Thank you for giving me an easy one. Cleaning populated PCBs in a stencil cleaner can be a nightmare! Please see my response to the question by MartyS on "Fine-pitch Apertures". If this doesn't answer your question, let me know.

Currently I am running a very dense PCBA using a PCB less than 20 mils thick. We have two facilities running this product. One is using Nitrogen during reflow one is not. What is the advantage and disadvantages of using Nitrogen during the reflow

It's pretty straight forward: Cartridges require a bigger inventory investment and a dispensor, but improve paste handling and mixing.

Hello, I am new to SMT and I was wondering if someone could give a breif overview of a generic SMT process. Basically what machines are needed and how chips are mounted. More specifically, how the solder is applied. Thank you
