Hi, The distance between the two terminations/endings/pads of 0603 (0201)is 0.15mm i.e. lesser than than the distance between the 0603 and through hole i.e. 0.5mm My ques is that, then why its termination doesnot short as it has a minimum distance.A

Just to clarify: I'd say that it will potentially save money by turning the wave off at night, but the savings are minimal. But...If your power rates are cheaper during off peak hours (at night) like some power companies offer, it may save you money

http://michaelbluejay.com/electricity/cooling.html this page has it right about minimizing AC energy use. With the wave, look at two machines. One you turn off, the other you let idle. The one that is turned off is using no power. The other one is

Time to retire the wave?

Hi, I am ok either way, and the main reason I originally went with Soltec was the overall oven design seemed cleaner than ERSA. The soltec had good performance, but the oven design was neat internally, where the ERSA seemed to be a bit of a mess.

Parallelism tends to drift: �h After preventative maintenance �h From dross buildup or other obstruction clogging either wave Parallelism should at least be studied during the process characterization stage, so that you know your machine's process

Blowholes during wave soldering

Joris We don�t know the maximum period to store the boards without having problems with blowholes. Too many variables to determine. We prefer to just fix the problem, but understand that you have stock that you need to build-down. Determining mois

Although greatly publicized and many papers on the subject, I wish to hear experiences from the field from professionals who have migrated from SnPb wave soldering to PbFree wave soldering. I am being pushed by one of my largest clients, an internati

SORRY I did not offer a solution so here goes - The best way to get rid of this issue if you cant change flux is to reduce your flux consumption to a minimal with a spray flux and keep the heat REALLY high to boil off the alcohol before it can be abs

Listen, I conqure with with wAyne on this one as your board house is always gonna the first person y a blame if you haven't adjusted any process paarameters in a while and see board related issues that can be traced to the board house. I once though

Are you using nocleans, especially when you get to SMT? Years ago, I had OA wave flux get into vias that were plugged from the top under parts. It is really difficult to clean small, high aspect ratio vias. Cross sections showed that the copper in
