Hi, Thanks guys for all the suggestions. I am going to check what options we have for top side heating. Do people recommend we get convection for that? Also, we seem limited to 60% in the machine setup, and does anyone know how to run the top lam

Yep. If speed is not an issue a Heller 1500 will pretty well do you fine unless you are trying to process a brick. A Heller 1700 will not give you any more heated length, so don't get sucked in to that one. However, they are a little more fun to pl

That's my exact suspiscion too. This guy is trying to find some type of "scapegoat" for some unknown defect that nobody can figure out. First, he'll try blaming the solder paste, thinking that the CM is too dumb to choose the correct soldering mate

We've experienced this issue with SN100. A couple of things we've tried, all with varying levels of success: 1. Longer pre-heats. We use SN100 in a solder pot, and pre-heat the boards on our wave machine. This did have a positive effect, but I ne

It is CSP reliability issue, which is the mobile CPU from Spreadtrum. All the tests passed and shipped to customer. They assembly them and tested but failed. After they reflow this CSP with hot air gun, some of the boards passed. We got some board

Thanks, Dave, To the 183 TAL...I was just referencing a previous post I found in the archives. We checked the profile on the board this morning, absed on the temp info that AIM recommended, and found that we're above liquidous for nearly 2 minutes!

We are using Mulicore MF101 flux and a Vitronics selective soldering machine on a lead-fee assembly and are having trouble with nozzles blocking even when the nozzle aperture is increased. Has anyone come across this problem before using fluxes with

Jeong Ju-young You touched them all up with an iron? Wow! We have also had similar issues. What I did to prove there was a board problem was paste one & reflow one bare board with the same chem (noclean) we saw the non-wetting condition. Then applied

I am running a product with board size ~18"X16". I faced stencil aperture positional accuracy issue which slightly shifted at both end of stencil at positive and negative in X direction thus causing solder paste to pad mis-registration. Due to this s
