Hi all,
We are about to start using 2 sided 0.5mm PCB's. These are quite flimsy
and our current methods of clamping the PCB whilst mounting (locate pins
and edge clamping in Yamaha YV100/YVL88 (Phillips in the States I
believe) and Fuji CPIV-3) bends the boards causing the 'trampoline'
effect.
My question is, how does anyone using 0.5mm PCBs support the boards
during placement?
Are carrier boards common or are different clamping methods utilized?
How are the boards reflowed?
Can/is a support wire used in reflow ovens?
Any comments appreciated.
Thanks
David
