Guys, So I recently started working for a small CM in Southern N.H. We currently use 2 Magic Chef Mini wine friges to store the solder paste (63/37, RoHS). I've been monitoring the room temp (and humidity) and the frige temps all this week. The pro

Recently, there has been an upsurge in the Pin Hole/Blow Hole problem in our wave soldering process. We are baking the PCBs for 2 Hrs. at 125 degree C. The Wave Soldering profile seems to be O.K. Still the problem is persistent. Can somebody help

Hi Dan, Did the manufacturer specify the temp at which to store your paste? You could be 20 degrees apart from each other. Plus, room temperture to you may be 74 degrees F, while to a hard nose owner who doesn't like heating his building, it could

Hi Steve, To my opinion your peak temperature is a little low. If you are sure that the BGA (especially the balls under it) reaches this 205 degrees then it should be OK, but if you measured somewhere else on the board then it's probably better to r

Hi Im trying to find a supplier for 30swg HMP solder wire idealy the alloy I want is 93.5Pb, 5Sn, 1.5Ag, 296 to 301 degrees C. Flux cored. 30swg or 0.3mm diamiter. but the critcal parts are the diameter and the melting point, 300 degrees +-20 degree

The minimum vertical hole fill is defined as follows: Class 1: Not specified, with a 270-degree circumferential fillet and wetting on the secondary (solder source side) of lead and barrel, and a 75% coverage of the land area on the secondary side. Cl

Most machines for lead free have adjustable conveyor angles (4 to 8 degrees). In the good ole days with lead, we typically ran at about 6 degrees. Often we see closer to 4 degrees with lead free. This is very common, and provides longer immersion

The nozzles get centered at zero degrees and 180 degrees. I believe the yellow asterisk is the measurement at zero degrees, when it rotates to 180 is when you will get a red X or a green O. (In other words the yellow asterisk is normal) I think you

You're using a SAC305 chemistry? Double check your liquidus temp! Your profile shows a liquidus temp of 217 degrees C. SAC305 is not eutectic. (It doesn't transition from paste to liquid instantly). It goes thru a "pasty" stage. We use a temp of 221

Sebas, some things in your profile don't make sense. 3 of your thermocouples, #1 # 4 and #6 are consistent. The others show completely different data. The consistent thermocouples, also, show peak temp at 241 - 243 degrees. That is extermely high for
