My company has been doing its hand soldering using drip bottles for application of no-clean flux. This has created quite a few problems, especially on our microwave boards. I want to convert us over to flux pens. Does anyone have any suggestions or c

Your research is on track. NC flux needs to reach activation temperature. Also, do not depend on the corrosion characteristics associated with the flux classification (ie, L1, L0, M1, M0, etc.), until the flux is activated by exposure to soldering

Russ, I don't understand this thread in general...Got three APE Chipmaster's and one Chipper running 24/7 and have never had a problem....it's been almost three years. What are you doing with your Chipmaster? What chips? It's rare that we hav

Using a flux pen sounds like a good idea. Comments are: * I assume you�re talking aqueous flux. If not, some NC flux pens leave white residues. Nearly all of 15 samples suffered to varying degrees with white residues. * Use the same flux that you

We use NC flux exclusively for SMT and wave soldering. And it is a fairly old formula from Multicore, though we are currently qualifying a new formula. The automated soldering does not appear to be a problem. It is only the hand soldering that causes
