A little late to the party here, sorry... Has the joint been verified as a cold solder joint? That is, visually confirmed that it looks like cold solder, and, perhaps, xrayed to confirm the solder status? X-raying may sound a bit extreme, but you'

Materials added to solder can change its appearance. For instance: * Gold in tin/lead solder is dull / grainy * Palladium in tin/lead solder is dull / grainy We do NOT advocate using visual appearance to define the appearance of a good and a bad so

How did you come to the conclusion that you are having a cold joint problem. Just by appearance ? As Dave stated if you have any of the metals that he listed in the joints they will appear to be dull and grainy sometimes. But... Dave, I will have t

Has anyone in the industry had even a fair amount of success inspecting reflowed solder joints to IPC class 3 standards? I am not interested in hearing from system reps or people who work for an AOI manufacturer. Thanks,

We had the data at the time and it was quite high. More false calls then anything. I do not have the data anymore it since has been archived. When the system was introduced we had 1 engineer and 2 operators trained for programming and running the

About 2 years ago our company tried to go with a post reflow AOI inspection. This AOI was suppose to be able to inspect to a level class 3 product. **It is impossible** You cannot inspect for a heel fillet and inspecting for poor wetting is a very

Paul, do you have any kind of false failure data for the application you struggled with? Also what amount of manpower did you use to operate the system(s).

I find this disturbing when customers dictate your process and equipment? Your responsibility is to deliver a quality product on time. Why would your customer care HOW you achieve this? Hence the success of Chinese manufacturing. I have one custo
