We use a conveyor before our oven and put a footswitch on it to send the next board or jump the pins so that it just sends the board depending on delay needed.

Hi, That's true, and the plant just does not look high tech without that PC on the front of the wave. I should donate the wasted processor cycles to the SETI screen saver if it's still going on. Regards, Grant

Certain solder pastes are more affected by humidity than others. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for more on controlling humidity in your plant.

Heavens to Murgatroyd, we agree with Russ that "black pad" could be the cause of your solderability problem, but oxidized nickel is an additional explanation. While its often easy for assembler to jump this conclusion, it sounds like you've been bla

Liza Could increases in adhesion due to exposure to high temperature and humidity in storage environments be an explantion to this cover tape excessive bonding issue? We agree with GS that heat bonding is so 1970s. Most heat bonders can fairly eas

Hi Rob, I would be asking the customers about that. I've read somewhere that teflon is used on feeders, is this a standard and does the absence or presence of this contribute to tape tearing? Thanks, LIza

Hi GS, I forgot...coming from what you said about aging, the complaints we received come from products that were processed 3-6 months ago. Based on your experiment, should this age affect the quality of the seal? Thanks a lot, Liza
