Hi, i am using AIM 264-5 No Clean flux for soldering alpaca pieces on PCB boads, but i am having problems: poor filling and no solder. I am using SAC 305 lead free solder. I have tried to change flux pressure, time, ammount as well solder speed an

So, I just learned that alpaca isn't just a cousin of the llama, it's also a Cu/Ni alloy (imitation silver). Creeped me out at first... When you say "poor filling and no solder", are you referring to wetting problems? Do you have any photos you co

I believe that NORDSON now recommends AIM NC277. Nordson bought out ACE-protech.

Hi All, What are you running for selective solder flux? I'd like any opinion on water soluble and/or no-clean fluxes you are using. In our Kiss 104 machine we use HYDRO-X20 water soluble flux, per the original install suggestion, but I'd like to k

BLT 31-41 "No Clean Selective Flux For Aerospace" On a Versaflow 3/45 Atomises well, good hole penetration, good wetting, cleans off well in the solvent cleaner. Use for SN100C, SA0307, and 60/40.

I personally prefer a NC process if I have to chose. AIM flux was good NC377 I think(they keep changing names), NF 372 from and many more. You can make them all work...the KISS 104 ...

It could be lack of preheat or flux. You can verify the flux by hand applying. I'll bet it's lack of preheat though. That's usually the case with selective solder.

Check flux penetration and type of flux. How much is solid contents. The solder filling is better under Nitrogen. Check the time (speed) of the nozzle whether is correct. Usually For SAC305 the temperature of bath is 320C/degrees, but only for sel

We are experiencing widely varying First Pass Yields for selective soldering. Some boards are near 100% while others are less than 50% depending on the pitch and general complexity of the board. Question: If you are running 100 boards through your s
