So, you toss whatever is on the stencil every 8 hours. Correct? How long has it been on the stencil? * If that particular paste has been on the stencil for 8 hours, we'd agree to toss it too. * If paste has been on the stencil for less than 8 hour

Hello, We are having issue with one of the customer board. This is 10 layer PCB FR4 with black solder mask. Coating Ni/Au. Soldering leadfree. We are using 7 zones air reflow oven (zones top&bottom). We have bed solder flowing for this boards. T

Hello I made some test on different oven and problem still occurs. The only progress is that with diffrent thermoprofil ( Ramp to Spike instead of Ramp- Soak- Spike skewed components appears at 1 % of produced parts). With Ramp - Soak-Spike we have p

I have recently been handed over the waving operation here, and am unclear on how to address our recent issue with our Wave. We are using AIM WS-715M Flux in a Foam fluxer, and are using AIM SN-100C in the wave. The problem is on several of the assem

I am not using a solder pallet, I don't think the problem is contamination related, because these parts are on some of our other assemblies, and they're being waved with no problems. The problem seems to be mainly on our panelized boards for some rea

It sounds like you may be thinking of two different test methodologies. What is required? Bare-bard testing, to verify pcb fabrication? Or populated board testing, to verify manufacturing? If it's bare board testing, the fab house should advise a

Our internal designers are employing SMT connectors that utilize a �PCB positioning boss� in conjunction with normal gull wing leads. The use of these devices is based on the advertised ability of the boss to prevent �mis-insertions� and assist in �

We have used thousands of them with no problems. They will not aid in "connector retention" unless you have a shear force at exactly the right angle. This is an advertising joke. They will help with alignment of the connector. Open your holes up so t

As you are new to this - start with lots of hair and slowly reduce. Start with one good person. Spend the money on someone who knows the process, can set it all up, (including air, power, alignment, calibration, programming, troubleshooting, stenc

Since you got no reply, I will give it my best shot but we do not have a radial inserter because they are really expensive. I would start with Universal instruments. I think its http://www.uic.com. I think they still make them in New York. TDK and Pa
