Hi Hannu, You just gave a very realistic and practical view of the lead-free dilemma. The main reason that your coil coating doesn't get removed is because of the inability of lead free alloys to wet the surface and conduct the heat. Higher temperat

OK, granted, this is not exactly your hi-tech SMD production but pertains to lead-free so I'll post this anyway: Can anybody share their experiences on lead-free dip soldering of transformer terminals? I have not done any testing myself but have see

Rob, Are you hinting that the lead content of this component with dipped tin/lead solder would not be an issue with RoHS? If so, our understanding is that the legislation requires that the 6 banned substances cannot exist at greater than X% in any

Hi Hannu, Just out of interest, are these big, heavy transformers, where the weight of lead in the solder will be less than 0.2% of the overall weight of the dipped part?

I do not mean big, heavy transformers but rather small ferrite core transformers, with ferrites in the range of EF16 .. EF40. The weight of the lead and its percentage of the total weight is not the issue here. We simply do not want lead-containing t

Hannu, First and for all I have a problem with your question "tried and trusted" for the simple reason that you are going to change too lead-free. Ultrasonic soldering or welding is not new, as far as I know it is only used applying the ultrasonic

According to seho, for multi dipping the process window is very small and they would prefer drag soldering which has a wider window. What is your view on dip vs drag? Why? Other machine user also share the same suggestion?

Copper wire will become thinner when dipped in tin/lead or lead free solder. The copper is disolved off of the bulk wire. This is one reason rework on solder pots must be restricted. Eventually, after repeated cycles you will have smaller and sma
