Buy ESD safe gloves cut the fingers off and fill with buckshot and use plastic tie wraps to tie them off. No the tie wraps will not burn.

Hello John, There are some coatings for aluminum to eliminate solder drag out. The do not work with all fluxes it is called hardcoat anodized it is black or geen in color. Unless you have faily high volumn the hard coat cost can be as high as titan

Deni, This looks more like webbing and not flux residue. Webbing is caused by not enough flux to protect the surface resulting in oxide webs sticking to the board surface. The insufficient flux can be caused by: - Weak flux foam head - Air knife p

We recently started to use wave-soldering. As total newbies in that field, we got successful results most of the time. Howewer, this batch of PCB's had a lot of resdiue, as shown on the picture. Most of it is most likely flux, but on some areas even

5 Steps to Eliminate Bridges: 1. Establish (wave) Parallelism First and foremost, you must establish board-to-wave parallelism. This is the prerequisite to any wave solder process control. For an understanding of the power of this approach go to ht

Like Mark, I'm guessing your problem is with SMT parts on the top side, the solder is re-melting and some of the parts are moving around during when the board is being wave soldered. When I had some training on thru hole wave soldering way back when

Randy, are you baking initially for surface mount? These boards I'm talking about are just thru hole, so there would not be any bake between baking for part marking and wave solder.

http://michaelbluejay.com/electricity/cooling.html this page has it right about minimizing AC energy use. With the wave, look at two machines. One you turn off, the other you let idle. The one that is turned off is using no power. The other one is

Hi Joris - There is an excellent wave solder guide called "Take No Prisoners" that includes instructions for attacking and eliminating solder balls and preventing their recurrence: 1. Increase Dwell Time Solder balls are normally caused by too much f
