You'd still have to change all of the part library references, make up new ones for new parts, enter feeder sizes, etc. More trouble than it's worth, once you know how to use the software and prep your cad data to be compatible with it. There are lo

Okay, after taking an actual minute to think about my suggestion, it has dawned on me that filling a metal cavity with molten solder to make a solder connection is not a good idea. By doing so I wouldn't be giving the metal cavity sufficient time to

Hello! I've had the same problem about one Jear ago. We had exessive building of voids in the solder joints. I recomment to take a pincer to break off some of the components. If the solder joint is good, the copper pad will stay at the solder joint
