COMPONENT DROP DURING SECOND SIDE REFLOW | 14 August, 2017

Dear ALL,

what might be reasons for component drop during second side reflow soldering in PCB( OCCURS NOT FREQUENTLY- 100 BOARDS ONCE )??

your valuable comments are welcome!!!

We often do double sided SMT assembly, never had issues with smaller components. However, we apply glue to heavier components like inductors, SD card sockets etc.

For this purpose, we have a glue dispensing machine inline after the solder paste printer.

AS per my understanding, when the total effect of surface tension of the solder paste on the component leads is lower than the weight / gravitational pull, the component will fall.

Imagine a small water drop on a water tap, it does not fall down unless it gets bigger in size (surface tension less than gravity)

Thank you so much for your valuable feedback . Root cause was found that amount of solder paste printed on board is uneven. Uneven solder paste printing was Due to misalign of backup support pins in PRINTER. Problem was rectified after changing backup support pins .

Luckly u found the root cause :) Don't you use SPI or some inspection machine?

To prevent the trouble can happen next time, in my opinion, U shoud have inspection tool or Stencil design change to increase amount of solder.

the D-PACK IC are falling down in primary side while second side reflow soldering. the solder paste volume is ok. reflow time ( TAL ) is less than primary side.

but still issue is happening.

let me konw how to prove it is DFM issue, because its heavy weight component.
