Are you talking about Durastone? That's what we use for our wave pallets. Both our wave vendor and solder bar vendor told us that we had nothing to worry about as far as Pb-contamination of the pallets. We have used the same pallets across our Sn

Any lead free will eat a leaded designed wave soldering machine. But SN100c will eat it the slowest, our soldering tips used to only last 3 months with SAC305 when we changed to SN100c solder wire we are having around 9 months tip life. Our wave sol

I don't know. We never had craziness like this before lead-free. You should have the yellowish-metal analyzed to be sure. Guessing: You're seeing this color on the terminations of components, not on the bulk of the SnX solder connection. If that's

Never used stainless pots as when we converted to lead free we changed all the pots to titanium. Been using SN100C for many years now, very good results, also use it in reel form in our selective solder machines with great results. Bear in mind the

I'm not sure what happened to my post, but we think to have got the situation under control. The solder joints on the boards looked terrible. I can only describe it as unburnt flux, maybe. (like if you took a spoonful of solder and sprayed flux direc

Does anyone has experience with this soldering process? I would appreciate to have some information, about equipment and procedures Many thanks

Ther is a solder alloy out there that is supposed to allow lead free wave processing without having to upgrade pumps and such or increasing the pot temp (direct drop in). I have not used it nor do I plan on doing leadfree wave soldering but you may

Hi Tom, Thanks for the compliment. I've been researching and planning for the time that my company would go lead free since late in 1999. I hear you there, how do we know that the component is lead free. Baring a leap of faith with your vendors, I

Glenn, i am aware of one unique problem with voc free fluxes. since these fluxes have certain amountb of water content they cause sputtering leading to solder balls & voids problems. Regards Vinesh Gandhi | I require some feed back from any one
