When not practical to drill hole into pcb to profile here is what I do and seems to be just fine. place thermo into area underneath BGA and let her rip, you will not be in the ball/solder joint, but the temp difference as long as you are in the arra

A couple things on the Grid-Lok system. They now offer a top-side edge clamping system. The edge clamping system works very well for warped, twisted boards etc.. Using this system in the auto mode also allows the pins to contour to the geography of

We are constantly messing around with easy ways to transport double sided boards through reflow. (Boards that cannot ride on the chain fingers for any number of reasons). We've got some fancy Durostone carriers that work awesome but are product spe

Good Morning SWAG, We have the same situation. We have found that for the most part, bottomside components do not move from thier location durring reflow unless pressure is applied. We have had instances where the component is able to drop down into

I am currently contemplating the purchase of a pcb prototyping machine. The machine will be used to prototype some patch antennas, microwave circuits, embedded systems, boards for various surface mount chips evaluations, possibly milling PZT materia

We currently use both machines side by side in our lab now and LPKF is by far the better machine. Both are comparable systems to each other but the T-Tech machine always seems to have problems of some sort and their tech support department isn�t ve

I assume that you are referring to the same kind of mechanical feeders (older type) that are used on the Philips (Assembl�on) Topaz as well. First make sure that the right gear pulley spring is set to its stiffest position (the loop at the end of the
