Not too sure about that compressed air idea.... How dry is the air? Will it be monitored for moisture content? Given that the air IS dry enough (less than 5% RH) You will have to supply compressed air 24hrs per day, without any disruption in flow

Intermetallic growth is a diffusion process, the thickness of the intermetallic is given by: z^2 = (Do)(t)exp[-Q/RT] Where Do (m2 s-1) is the diffusion coefficient, T(�K) is the temperature, Q (J mol-1) is the activation energy and R (8.314 J mo

Alistair, your paste deposit is controlled by a few things: Stencil thickness Squeegee pressure Squeegee speed Print gap in 99 out of 100 applications for paste printing you would have a print gap of 0 i.e. on contact printing where the PCB is in fu

We're not sure what you mean by temperature sensitive components. From an assembly process stand-point, every component we use is temperature sensitive to one level or another. More specifically, some of our products use polyphenylene sulfide (PPS)
