Dear Mr. Jeff, Our SMT room are using the DEK288 and MPM2030 Printers at the same time. We found the similar problem also as mentioned by MR.JOHNW. We analysis it was mainly caused by the PCB metal fixture used in DEK288. The PCB metal fixture is

We are a contract manufacturer and we do business with a big company. There is a mistake in the design of the PCBs they are supplying: the pads are too long (under the component) and sometimes we get short circuit we cannot see. Changing the design w

I have used Multicore MP-100 and Heraeus F380 pastes for a while, and experienced very few dry joint problems. May be worth checking if the pad size and/or spacing are to the correct specification for the components. Check the date codes on the comp

Well, I was able to convince them we had a serious problem on the poorly reflowed boards without spending 2k on off- site analysis. Now all we have to do is sort out the ones that flowed well but had solder balls (looks like a damaged stencil prob

Dear Colleagues Does anyone know or care to share any information as to typical torque values ( N/cm ) for components that have been placed using screen printing surface mount adhesive, using a plastic stencil ? Are there any industry set shear test

No, not as such. Consider: * Using the IPC calculator [free at http://www.ipc.org]. It allows you to consider / assess the amount of solder when designing pads. * Reviewing IPC-7525 - Stencil Design Guidelines. It gives general aperture guidelines.

Being in the backplane biz, we too, encounter similar problems...especially when our customer reads the IPC as Biblical (you will achieve 75% fill or be turned into a pillar of salt). Anyway, recently, one of our process engineers suggested paste-hol

I agree with davef on most subjects including this one , we have used a microscope and an experienced inspector for years and done just fine. Recently due to customer demands we an acquired an ASC 3-D inspection station, and it works great it told us

Hi Guys, Can anyone help us out here, please? We need to know what formulae (other than Length(L)xBreath(B)xheight(Z)), is used to determine what volume of paste is required for 20mils pitch leadless chip carrier (LCC28), for the paste printing pro

I am looking technology for BCC package. The preliminary datasheet from customer show that it had rectangular flat pad on the joint. The smallest pitch is 0.6mm having 96 I/Os. I am currently putting BGA, uBGA, CSP and CBGA onto PCBs usinf no-clean
