Dan, Can you upload a picture of the bridging? Why oval pads? Have you considered using round pads with the smallest practical annular ring? In my opinion, an oval pad would potentially hold more solder because there is more exposed area, and the m

Vapor phase soldering systems by Asscon are characterized by special designed heating modules. The thermal mass of the heating modules is designed so that a completely delay-less and direct regulation of the heat/flow/energy transfer to the soldering

I don't see an issue. As was mentioned before, it is what the customer wants. You could approach this from one of two ways. You could simply install the parts, clinch the leads on the opposite side for added mechanical strength and solder the parts

we have been asked by a client if we are capable of producing product that will require HMP, I am currently tyring to gather as much info as I can with regards to this solder type and would like help can we run this type of solder through a smt line

I haven't done this either but have an idea of how I would address it. First, let me ask, are your leads crimped or straight? Most likely they are crimped which means you should get reflection from the lead. You could try a solder inspection (reve

If the parts are hand placed and hand trimmed, why do you need to inspect whether the lead is in the hole. The operator should be inserting the part correctly. We have MIRTEC machines and they do a pixel comparison to "known good images". With a m

I read through this thread somewhat and checked out the pictures. I've programmed TH lead checks on a newer Yestech and an older Mirtec. I personally use the Yestech white-top/histogram check and the only solder inspection Mirtec has. In my experienc

Using ERSA Ecoselect. I am curiuos to hear from other selective solder users as to what is the ideal lead lenght for your application on thru hole components. Shorter leads have helped us decrease solder bridges. We find ours to be from .75 mm to 1

Hi All, We have purchased an Ersa Versaflow selective solder machine, and I am looking in to profiling upon the machine. We currently have a process for profiling our wave with a WaveRider system, this we use to gauge that the machine is set up cor

Hi Reese, Thanks for the feedback. So you have a fair amount of assemblies that are new designs with 10% through hole parts. Are these parts inserted manually? What is the soldering process?...wave solder?...selective solder? Do these components
