Dip Transfer Plates
The application of high viscosity paste flux can be accomplished with OK International
Dip Transfer Plates. These plates allow for a simple, controlled application of paste flux
to the solder balls of your BGA or CSP component. They are available in many sizes
and depths. Please contact your local representative for information and availability.
Custom sizes and configurations are available.
Metcal has pioneered the application of high viscosity paste flux using specialized
fixtures to ensure consistent repeatable results.
1. Select the Dip Transfer Plate that meets your components requirements for size
and depth.
2. Using the supplied spatula fill the cavity with paste flux. Use the spatula to
smooth the flux level with the sides of the transfer plate. This ensures a
repeatable deposit.
3. Place your component into the component pick up plate and pick it up with the
vacuum pipette.
4. Using the micrometers, align the component in the X, Y and Theta axes.
5. Remove the adjustable component fixture and replace it with the flux transfer
plate.
6. Slide the prism into the placement arm, this unlocks the Z-axis arm and allows
you to rotate the knob to dip the component into the flux. Slide the flux transfer
plate towards the placement arm to the component pick-up position.
7. Follow the screen prompts to lower the component into the flux transfer plate so
the solder balls contact the bottom plate of the flux transfer plate. Depress the “Z”
axis “UP” buttons to return the component to the focus position.
8. Remove the component pick up plate and inspect the impression left in the flux to
ensure all the solder balls have been coated.
9. Check component alignment and adjust as required.
10. Follow the screen prompts, push in the camera and click next.
11. Place the component as directed by the screen prompts, and continue with the
placement process that you have selected.
