we do that and there's a variation on the solder temp. sometimes around 10 degrees, we have 2 solder pallets that are run in intervals of roughly 3 1/2 minutes a part (the time that take the operator to put all 3 terminals in a 42 pcbs per board, and

Hello! I have a problem with one of the products here, we use a pallet to run the board on the solder wave, when the board gets solder and you inspect the board you notice that for some reason the first pcbs that touches the wave are ok, even a litt

One thing you could check/monitor is the temperature in the pot/wave. As boards run across the wave, they will cause fluctuations in the wave temperature. The heaters should hep with minimizing this; but, if you're running a lot of boards in quick

A little confusion here. Are you running several boards in one pallet and the last boards are looking poor or is the issue getting worse as the day progresses (like as the pallets get warm)? - If it is the last boards in the pallet, then you may wan

Armando, Is the problem in the same spot on the board with every run? If so, there might be something about that particular location that is part of the cause (ie. ground or power plane connection). It sounds like you're seeing blow holes, or insu

Joseph, In addition to my previous post The reason why the cracks are most visible at the transformer location is due to the weight of the transformer. The stress on the boards is the highest because the weight of the transformer will warp the board

Based on your description, it sounds like the solder connection is defective. Further description of board and solder materials and assembly processes would be helpful in moving forward.

| After reflow proces in convection-IR oven we find broken body of SOT23 elements. There is no problems on other elements (SOIC, chip R,chip C, etc) | Where is the problem? | | Thanks in advance! | Check your profile at the site of cracked component

Joseph, What is the topside temp reading of your board before reaching the pot? Do you have top-heater in your wave machine? It sounds like; you got an insufficient per-heating issue.

Does anyone know why this typically occurs. We have seen capacitors crack due to stressing. Any good solutions? Regards, Steve.
