Thanks Greg Our main problem is that we are putting small number PCB through, about300 PCB, size180*250. Such number order our customer in week. In result we got such high solder consumption and high production cost. We will tray to use antiacidant.

The biggest fear is mixing the solder pastes and bar solder. Had a training program for teaching folks what the alloys are and how to read them. I have locked up the bar solder and use the buddy system to restock the pot. Put up many signs on le

I hear ya Ray, but I have standard (automatic) solder dispenser that are 700gram modules. Jars have other issues that I have migrated away from... I like your idea of slaving the paste bar code label to the board scanner....

We have segregation of materials, Different storage areas for paste and Bar stock, etc. We are bar coding the solder paste materials (have to scan paste container, and blades before use, etc. line won't run unless its good). Also changed packaging s

Well, it finally happened. A machine Operator did not follow our bar code process and "grabbed a tube of solder paste" and guess what. Built 250 assemblies with LF paste when it should have been Tin/Lead!!!! SOLDER PASTE SUPPLIERS: can you make t

What volume of boards are you putting through. 1Kg per hour does sound very high but then again it does depend on volume Using an antioxidant is a must with Lead Free some alloys have additions in them to start with but those drop out with use so th

Hello Could somebody inform us about real consumption of lead free solder alloy SN100C on your wave solder process. We do not use some antiaxidant and had had alloy consumption about 1 kg per hour. What is your experiance? All sugestion will be well

If you are saying you're going through 1kg/h while only producing 300 pcbs a week and the rest of the time the machine is standing still, then 1.there is something seriously wrong with your machine or 2. check if an operator is suddenly covered in sh
