What are you guys using for SMT Adhesive? When we started into SMT many years ago, we used a Loctite with a pneumatic pump. When we got into automated dispensing with our Contact 3S placement machine, we switched to Heraeus PD955M. It has worked very

CW, The good news is that you are not trying to use SAC paste with SnPb balls for that would be a void generator due to the ball being liquidous while the SAC paste is still in a flux cleaning stage. Two points to consider: One, voids are not an i

A little more detail on our application: It is a large fixture (approx. 15" x 18") that spans the chain fingers in the reflow. It has several cut-outs and reductions in thickness to allow for better heat distribution. It worked well/stayed flat fo

What type of hardware are you looking for? Nuts and bolts? Custom machined/stamped parts? In general, stainless steel is usually considered RoHS, but more expensive. However, medical equipment usually uses things like stainless steel. However, som
