Electronics Forum | Thu Feb 16 14:06:51 EST 2006 | russ

You are pretty much on your own when selecting fluxes. search archives in forums and see what everyone else is using and doing. Whoever you purchased the wave from should be installing this machine, certifying it, and providing training for your

DEK265 or DEK260 for high mix low volume ???

Electronics Forum | Mon Feb 20 17:56:46 EST 2006 | Chris

If you are running FR4 PCBs and not something exotic like Kapton flex circuits, I would go with the Dek 265 any day of the week. You will find that Dek supports the fully automatic printer much better than the semiautomatic printers like the 260, 24

Thermal Profiler Batteries

The initial cost of the battery is similar to saying the size of an iceberg is measured only by what shows above the waterline. There is a lot more to it than at first blush. The ECD Power Pack costs $245, but provides over 3500 hours of profiling.

Hi, We are an OEM, so we deal with all stages of the pipeline from parts purchasing, to assembly to sales through our channel, and the biggest thing we have been worrying about is our inventory and bom conversions, as I don't want to be stuck with l

Hi All, The change over to lead-free is as easy or as difficult as you want to make it The big problem I see with this lead-free transition is that there is no benchmark of acceptability and no defect data (yet) related to visual appearance of a sol

Necessity of ROSE in commercial quality processes

Hi, Thank you for your answers. But I want to explain some points on which I would appreciate any comment: * Having calibrated the process, we intend to carry out the ROSE test just on SAMPLES of the finished boards. Lets say one every hour. I exp

Typical SMT Machine changeover times?

The Juki 2060 can have both front and rear trolleys and you do not loose any feeder locations. My question was why can't the Assembleon put trolley on the rear? I recently visited a friend at a company that used a lot of Assembleon and compared run

Hi We are running automatic stencil printers, open squeegees, stainless stencil, stainless blades, print speed 25-30mm/sec. We have a frustrating consistency issue printing .37x.3mm apertures on a 45pin LGA (11 pads each side, 1 large ground in mid

Question about leaded parts used in leadfree soldering process

Electronics Forum | Fri Apr 07 11:19:55 EDT 2006 | muse95

Technically speaking, most likely yes it will work, unless possibly it is a BGA. There are issues surrounding BGA's. Here are some of the general issues: On any type of component, if the Pbfree solder you are using contains bismuth, then the Pb in

Amol, I thought I answered your question in another thread, dude! Anyway, to re-iterate. Yes, I was able to pull it off a hybrid profile. The LF BGA passed tensile testing, but no, it wasn't thermally cycled or stressed first to expose any latent
