I am having a problem with wetting on some feedthru wires. The problem seems to be contamination on the wires, due to the fact that the problem seems to be wire lot dependent. I have analysed it using SEM and come up with very little. Is there ano

hi, Having put a copper socket trough a wave soldering machine, and then through a DI wash, the boards have been dried and after a few days a green residue has been noticed on the copper. any suggestions? not drying properly maybe? or could it be th

Pure (red) copper oxide is green, its not a residue its just oxidation. In your case water and heat will accelerate the oxidation process of unplated or unprotected pure copper. The best way to avoid this from happening is use a socket with tin or n

Your copper corrosion is not good. It indicates that you have not done a good job in cleaning. [We assume this is a medium green color, not unlike the color of the solder mask on your board, that is almost like a translucent lacquer; rather than th

Not too much to go on, bud. Tell us about: * Wire material, finish, insultation, etc * Wetting problem description * Why feed that the wire is used for through is important * Range and extent of the problem * Results of metallographic analysis of "g

Your lighting would have to be pretty bad for it to be an issue. My gut instinct tells me you have bigger systemic issues. Operators will either be your best friend or your worst enemy. What percentage of boards have contamination? You might have t
