Selective Solder Defects

johndep7  11/07/2025 5 posts

We have recently been seeing issues with our selective solder process. The solder source side looks beautiful, the solder destination has what looks like shallow cracks in the solder joint. I said it was cold/disturbed solder, but it caused an internal argument. Someone is now saying it is simply a hot tear and there is no non conformance. My two questions are #1 Does anyone know the actual finding for these solder joints? #2 Whatever the finding is, do you know how to prevent it moving forward?
