Also have a look at ekra conveying belt tension and if they're not damaged (missing or damged teeth...) as it could affect the synchronisation of both belts and generate this kind of issue.

Inductor Skew

Molten metal has a high surface tension. If the pads are uneven you can have uneven forces. Decades ago if part were not placed exactly right, they would come out of the oven centered. (or tombstoned)

I need to replace the chain for the drive chain tension and i cant figure out the size. Any help would be appreciated thanks

Improve quality with stencil design for inductor

Electronics Forum | Wed Oct 11 05:58:13 EDT 2023 | kojotssss

Hello all, I know there are very skilled guys. Can anyone suggest a stencil design to avoid component displacement during reflow to improve tension of surface forces and selfalignment? There are cases where the inductors are shifted. All parameters

Re: What exactly is an apect ratio?

Hello Antonio ASPECT RATIO = the ratio of one dimension to another as in the ratio of the thickness of a stencil to the width of the aperture. For instance, a 10 mil aperture in a 5 mil stencil will have an aspect ratio of 2. This is aperture width

Hello: I have not seen a published formula for calculating the package weight that can be secured by molten solder. I have seen forumlas printed for tombstoning. From that aspect, we developed the following rule-of-thumb for first-order estimates:

QFP solder paste volume

We are running a number of boards with 8-10 25 mil PQFPs on board. Our process is mature with at least 3 years experiance and statistically few opens on the QFPs. Our beloved purchasing department has chased the almighty $ and changed FAB vendors

| Has anyone used the mechanical stencil foil tensioning system from certain company that eliminates using stencil frames and epoxy & mesh? Any comments on whether it's worth looking into? We go through product revisions like we go through clean so

Wave solder question

Electronics Forum | Tue Feb 19 15:59:55 EST 2002 | pjc

Surface tension is a likely cause. Surface tension is a negative wetting force. You may have a solderability problem. Be sure your flux is properly activated according to the flux mfg. top side board temp. specification. When surfaces to be soldered,
