I assume you are ref to top side wetting. In that case you may need to spray the top side of the board with flux to get it to fill. I would suggest ceaning the board afterwards. And yes you can rerun boards through the wave several times. Most pa

HI, I had a question for very generalise questionires from my Kitting dept with very usual enquiries prompting me that : For the after open seal solder paste tube later kept inside storage, how long that half way use solder paste can be still conside

Hi,, My doubt is regarding to the Reflow Time, I mean, in a 5 or 7 zones oves, how long the board should stay inside the oven to complete the soldering cycle? 4 min, more, less...Should I keep low temp until peak for a long time or high temp in shor

What you are most likely dealing with: Insufficient Pure Sn layer ( multiple causes ) Because elevated temperatures accelerate the diffusion process, the thickness of the Pure Sn layer will reduce during every thermal cycle... ( bakeing PCBs, S

Hi Andrzej, I guess you mean peelable solder resist. Good idea to try during R&D, but certainly not a solution on production floor. Also, few constraints to be considered such as presence of entrapped air between component and solder resist, the natu

Good day, can i seek an advice regarding wave soldering. Will it be advisable to reload the board two times to improve its barrel fill volume? If yes, what is the maximum number of times we can repeat wave soldering on the same board. If no, what

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

Hi Dave - You are correct that I was not clear in my comments. I assumed Joris had seen the usual solder balls accompanying his blowholes. Nevertheless, Joris, my first two recommendations still stand. Increasing the dwell time of your leads in t

I have problems with blowholes during the wave soldering process. I already find out that the stock time between reflow and wave is the most important. The longer the boards are in stock the more blowholes we have. We don't have a climat controlled
