In my experience a distance of 30 mils per 1 mil in height above PCA nominal is sufficient for the squeegee blade to bend (in the direction of squeegee travel) so that you don't have excessive solder issues near the label. Labels are about 5 mils ta

Pressure printing systems Conventional stencil printing techniques have fundamental limitations as regards paste handling: The volume of paste available for printing is limited, so frequent replenishment is necessary Paste is difficult to c

We agree with Wolfgang. Adding points along his line of reasoning: * Also consider placed component prescience. Sometimes, a mis-pick results in paste on the nozzle, which leads to the next component being stuck on the nozzle and not placed, which

5 Zone HVA70 Oven Board 6 layer, 10" x 13" lots of space, most critical is 100 pin QFP AIM Water Soluble 487 Tin Lead paste on SN100C HASL boards This board is giving me disproportionate grief! I am running 23 in / min which gives me about 3.1 mi

We're going to begin conformal coating a few of our assemblies as required by our customer. We're using Kester No clean paste and will use cotton gloves to keep the boards clean while handling. My question is: Do we need to clean the boards prior to

I've been involved with no-clean flux and conformal coat in the past.It has been my experience that the amount of no-clean flux used is proportionate to how well the conformal coat adheres to the boards.No clean paste did not affect adhesion. The co

If you hold your board sideways in a 90 degree angle you apply a force of 1 g to your components. 1 g translates into 32 ft / sec. square. This is not too much acceleration for fearless roller coaster drivers but Melf�s and Tantalums can fall off at

Hi all Pls. help advise. Our board use RMA solder paste (Pb-free Sn96.5/Ag3.0/Cu0.5). Can we use No-clean paste flux (Delta 670S1) in rework process? If it can not be used, why?. Thanks very much for your advice. Surachai

I guess the paste is Leaded hence the 220 Peak temp and the Sn100c is Eutectic at 227C so you need to be hotter to melt the HASL finish or you are relying on it alloying together with the paste which takes much longer. suggest running peak temp of 23

The hand assembled part is soldered in? If so, the white residue may be from the operator using some added wave solder flux to get better wetting when hand soldering.
