Cleaning Printed Circuit Assemblies, Design & Process Control Workshop
Monday, May 22, 2017 | 1:00pm – 4:30pm
Instructors: Workshop Introduction: The majority of the industry worldwide have been running no clean processes for many years and have often, understandably, neglected important issues like design for cleaning, selecting compatible components and compatibility between cleaning materials and flux residues. With increased miniaturisation and the demands of modern circuits cleaning has come back into fashion. Conformal coating is another process which has demanded special levels of surface cleanliness to guarantee coating adhesion and long term reliability. Although there are high reliability produces that use coating with no clean others want that extra confidence. Each delegate will receive a FREE set of cleaning inspection and quality control wall charts which also cover defects seen during assembly.

Solder Ball Elimination – In Wave, Selective & Reflow Soldering
Solder Ball Elimination – In Wave, Selective & Reflow Online Webinar Solder balls & solder beading have been a process issue for many years, they may not cause product failure or quality problems but they are not desirable. Solder balls are caused by a variety of factors in different processes and should be resolved to eliminate poorly defined materials/process or an assembly operation which are out of control. Selecting materials or processes without understanding process interaction may lead to solder balling For further information or to join the online webinar Click Here With over 40 years in industry and 30 solving process problems for the electronics industry Bob Willis explains the causes and curses for solder balls. Bob’s webinar features many unique process video clips on testing and failures and make his sessions come alive providing a much better understanding of the root cause of failure and corrective action Each webinar last approximately 60-90 mins with the opportunity for questions. Delegates can send their own solder balling problems for discussion during the webinar Topics covered include: What are solder beads & balls? What causes these defects? Why does PCB design & specification matter? Solder process & material & their impact Tin/lead v Lead-Free Solder ball & bead formation in reflow, wave & selective Test board for solder mask evaluation Causes/cures for random & designer balls Inspection criteria A copy of the slides presented during the webinar are provided at the end of the event
