Also, are there any other industry practices for void reduction? I read that Nitrogen helps.

There are quite a few papers out there on the subject. Just enter "SMT void reduction" into google or other search engine and take your pick. That said, slow ramp rates and paste volume reduction are a good place to start. Although I haven't tried i

First, we expect voiding in imm silver to be similar to ENIG. We expect more voiding in OSP than other common solderability protection. Second, choosing a solder paste, which does not contain resins and activators that decompose at higher temperatu

Here's some information about Fred Dimock's work on vacuum reflow - Operation of a Vacuum Reflow Oven with Void Reduction Data [ https://smtnet.com/library/index.cfm?fuseaction=view_article&article_id=3336&company_id=40492 ]

I have done a DOE on the SMT components, not the BGA, for reducing void within the solder. The result did not help in the void reduction, but confirmed that the speed of the IR oven, solder paste thickness may be the important factors for the void.

We have had some success in void reduction with LGA by pre-tinning or "bumping" the devices before placement. The extra solder seems to allow a slightly higher standoff, and allows better outgassing, is my guess. A lot more labor , but the results

What type of reflow profile are you using ? There is a void reduction profile recommeded by some paste manufacturers, Try that it might help. Did you check the components or the board and see if they have absorbed mositure ? try baking the boards and
