Likely causes of this are: -Preheat temp. too low -too much dross -uncured epoxy -PCB contamination ...also varify the solder flow over the wave is smooth.

Two most important parameters are: * Solder temperature is the temperature of the solder * Dwell time is the time that the board remains in contact with the molten solder Several things that you should consider are: * First, here's how to design an

I made my own wave measuring device using KIC2000 system. KIC2000 has automatic wave detection, so now I have a profiler for both reflow ovens and wave solder. The delmat carrier only cost $500. A guy, Samir, from this forum gave me the idea, actu

I am looking for effective ways to secure through-hole components (non-clinched) to the boards for wave soldering. Can someone share their ideas or methods? We've tried vacuum packing & tacking/masking, but there must be better ways. I'd appreciate a

Is the flux rated for lead free? These higher temps will cause most lead rated fluxes to burn off prior to the wave. Jerry

This is funny. Poeple giving answers to a question that isn't specific. What if the shorts he is having are on the top of his board, caused by flooding or Omega wave too high?

i think you need to use a PCB central support. do you know that part ? it specializes in preventing PCB board from bowing during wave soldering.

Sid, Try baking the boards before running, to insure no moisture. Baking out the moisture will help prevent warping. Should you need further assistance, we supply fixtures to force the board to stay flat to reduce to thermo shock during wave solde

is it usual if the board has warpage on both sides after wave soldering? And, if it is, please advise me how to solve it. Thanks in advance.

I would like to know when to consider top preheaters in a wave soldering machine. I am very new to this field. All responses are appreciated.
