Kev, I looked up records of various hollis machines with 3 preheat zones. and with progressive preheat temp. of 300 400 and 500 with a speed of 3.5ft/min the topside board temp was 120C before entering the wave. the preheat elements were infrared. W

Hi Lads, Thanks for all of the replies. To answer a few of your questions..... My wave is a Hollis PT500N. It has 3 zones of pre-heater rod elements. Each individual element (601195-01) is 500 watts. There are 16 elements per zone so 8 Kw per zone.

Hi George, I would suggest you to re-look your process parameters, especially for the pre-heat temperatures and the amount of flux deposited. The mask properties and that of your flux also play a role, but you could zero down to the root cause after

I'm not familiar with any "test socket cleaners", but I will tell you that water soluble flux is designed for a soldering application so it requires heat to activate. Not sure how effective it would be at removing oxides at room temperature. Second

In addition to the pre-emptive steps mentioned above, in my experience there are certain BGA package designs that seem more prone to that corner bridging. I have seen some packages that will essentially "curl" down at one corner as the package begin

Thinner: Flux thinner, NOT paint thinner We kept a spare stone in thinner in inventory. We cut PVC pipe to size, cap in one end, screw thread on the other, stone inside, filled with flux thinner and covered with a screw cap. I don't remember who we

Hi Dave, how does that calculate when you consider a topside temperature of for example 120�C like mentioned for NC-flux a while ago and a pot temperature of 250�C ? Just wondering Wolfgang

The board and pallet are at room temperature when they pass thru the flux, then are sent thru a pre-heat section, and lastly sent over the wave solder. The exposed portions of the board solder properly.
