Yep, done it previously with a multipot machine. Using with wirefeed to top up the pots means you only have a contamintion risk when you fit a new top up reel. Used separate nozzles for both, but theoretically using titanium nozzles would mean no c

I have done it different ways on different equipment. 1. Remove alloy one from the machine. Add alloy two only. and use it.For next board, do the same. 2. There are machines with separate sections for PB and PC-Free, so pots are away from each other

Hello gurus, I am a hardware designer with a small company. We are about to send a new PCB for fabrication. This board uses dozens of tiny QFN, DFN, and similar packages. As a final check I have been going through the datasheets of all these parts t

Just to further explain myself a bit, and why I hate being bombarded by advertisements, is because I think others (sales and marketing people) are trying to manipulate me. Why do I think that? Say if you have 5 pick and place salesmen, 1 from Fuj

Steve, Like you, I am sick, sick, sick of marketing. I can't go on the Internet, to a ball game or my local 7-11 without being bombarded with marketing. 7-11? Would you belive I went there to buy a Sunday paper yesterday and now they have a 27" mo

You've told us nothing about your situation, process, boards, or anything!!! If you leave some boards with very fine solder connections on the shelf for a cuppla years, the grain will become coarse. What do you mean when you say "grainy"? What is

Regarding the non-adherence of this maintenance schedule......should we expect to see flux condensate on our solder joints?? Possibly leading to solder joint contamination, dry joints, solderability issues in production etc.??

Hi all Does any one know problem with solder joint call crystallised joints. I have noticed that sometimes on our PCB when i look at the joints for example chips, LCCC, there are areas not smooth solder (very often in the center of the solder joint)
