Robert, what you have provided is not a "profile". It is a "recipe" or "job". I have 4 BTU VIP98's. I have hundreds of recipes...Your temps look similar to mine....but what does that have to do with the "thermal profile" as experienced by the asse

That would be one BIG spreadsheet, there are a lot of mfg with a lot of components for each one. As you know when going to the datasheetlocator you notice the huge listing of suppliers (500+) each one of them probbaly has anywhere from 1 type of co

Patrick, When you say "no-residue" what exactly do you mean? Is there truely "no-residue" or is it "no visible residue"? What type of ionic contamination results have you experienced? If you take a bare board that measures 0.0 NaCl and reflow it

IF you open up your TV, cd player or color printer you will see RA / RMA flux ON EVERYTHING! The waxy binder protects the halogenated compounds from becoming active with atmospheric moisture. Self healing is a good way to look at it. However, OA is

You may also want to start on the component library. Hypotetically speaking, the GSM shows the component as follows in the component library: One lead to the right, 3 leads to the left. This is the feeder default orientaion and it will be 0 degrees.

one more thought on this, When these boards are built new do we not have solder paste on the ground pad and then reflow? Has this caused any misregistration for you? I am assuming that you are not pasting the leads with the ground pad correct? I

So if I get this right, your customer wants you to run this product as pb free even though it is not. In order to run this as pb free you need to run pb free paste. If you use 63/37 paste at the higher temps I believe that in addition to the compon

We always use the regular production reflow profile when we use this method. Since you don't want to do that, All that is required is to ramp the part up to temp to get the balls to melt. If you don't exceed 2C per sec. in a ramp you will be fine.

Hello! We placed quite a few of 0402 with our CP3 using 0.7mm nozzle with the same feeder as you had. Pick up can be adjust and calibrated, but that is not the problem, I agreed with you on that part. The trick is you have adjust and play around wi
