| | | My guess would be trapped flux continuing to be active after soldering. Is the tarnish there immediately after exiting the machine? Do you remove the mask and wash right away? If the solder is reflowing under the mask on the component side

| | We have developed a new process for removing moisture from surface mount devices. We have one site where PCB laminate drying has been reduced to 1.5 hours. A standard oven took 4 hours to do the job. I am looking for a firm who does large scale b

Gel Flex works for Dek, just a slight modificaion. Works 100% better than any Grid type of system. We had missprints from Grid Lok and Form Flex - about every 5th or 6th board. Until we modified the Gels, we would take the time and some peelable s

We've got the same problem here, what we do is to apply peelable solder mask around the connectors or the exclusion zone. But be carefull! Sometimes the soldermask get inside the connectors and you can't remove it so you have to change it. Another th

I'm not exactly sure of your problem...but I'll give it a shot. I assume the screw is on the solder side of the board. If you wave solder the screw the head will fill in with solder. Try a water solouble mask or peelable laytex mask over the screw
