| We are a medium sized PCB assy. house manufacturing about 2000 motherboards a day. There is a major problem we are facing at the wave soldering stage, i.e. warpage of the PCB. As soon as the PCB touches the wave it warps severely from the centre

| Hope some of you out there can help me with this one. | I am getting feedback from our test department that they are showing opens on solder joints which have visually good wetting. The touch-up operators confirm that the joint looks good. All they

Right now we are taping the goldfingers which is effective but also expensive. Also, some tape was leaving yellow marks on the goldfingers. We're trying the so-called goldfinger glove from Steven's Products. It's a very small company (probably one gu

Ask your compadres how you can control a process when it's output has already been completed? If you do second side assembly before you inspect the first side, you can't possibly apply real time corrective action. I know what I'm talking about in t

Steve, We are touching up 6 - 12% of all solder joints processed. We consider the solder joint to be the focal point of the SMT process. Therefore our metric is based on it. For example in a given month we... 1. Assembled 25pcs of 'A' (IPC-A-610/J

Grant I'm gonna have to go ahead and sort of disagree with you there. The studies that I've been reading from various BGA Manufacturers have identified insufficient homogenizing / coalescing of the Sn/Pb Paste with the SnAgCu balls. Ball not touchi

Okay fellas...I posted awhile back regarding CP4 and CP6 placement issues. I think we may have figured it out. XO/YO and mark read positions were not correct. However, we have a new problem with the CP4-2. I was running the Fuji board, placing a s

SWAG is prolly right. You can verify the tactile sensor by watching the machine carefully. When finding the stencil height, make sure the board goes all the way up and touches the stencil to trigger the tactile. If it doesn't, then something is wr
