Kelvin, Thanks for the help. The actual opening size is .440 mm, but I think what you said makes sense. After discussing with the customer, it looks like it is the height which matters, more than the diameter. We have learned that the height of t

It's possible that combining these two fluxes is benign, you sure can't say your customer is wrong, can you???? So, what is the intent of leaving these two different flux materials on your board? What is the residue remaining on your board as your

Fluxes that have been properly heat activated are insulative (non-reactive) during operation in the field and during environmental testing. If you are also performing a cleaning operation, the possibility of growing dendrites is so remote that it can

First, I agree with Wolfgang, in response to Wister. Second, Wolfgang: Sometimes, our blanket purchase order for paste schedules delivery of the paste in advance of production requirements. (What!!!???? In-bound material schedules don't match out-

Do you mean, rows of pins at the edge of the substrate, making it a SIP/DIP component? This is achieved by attaching leadframes with dedicated technology, and is a typical high-volume application. If you confirm this is what you are looking for, ther

I feel your pain. Your company may already be using Kapton tape labels for their board serial numbers labels. Kapton is able to withstand repeated wash and heat cycles, and can be printed on a typical Zebra printer. The key to a successful and accura

Hello I'll be the one to ask a dumb question--Why not fix the screen printer? If it is a MPM you can call me and I'll help if I can. And no I'm not trying to sell any thing. Better yet --why is the printer down? Wasn't thinking that you may be ou

If you believe: * There is air in your paste AND * You are not whipping the air into the paste ... You should: * Return the paste to your supplier * Get it replaced * Begin qualifying a replacement supplier. One thing before you go racing off to ly

Just wondering if anyone knows this off the top of there head. I might be able to figure out the math based on surface tension (this is 63/37 so the data is out there) but I REALLY do not want to put that kind of effort into this. :/ Editing to clar

Yep. What I'm really looking for is the minimum radius of curvature for 63/37, which is a function of it's surface tension. It's physical properties issue, not an agency issue. I've seen some references that I have interpreted to mean that it's some
