Kester has a special alloy for high temp soldering. Alloy 123. I would think that if you coocked 63/37 to 360c you would have a pot of dross in no time! Doug

Hi, I'm an SMT refugee working in component manufacture - hey, times are hard! I've been asked by a customer to test some of my parts at high temperature on the wave - up to 360 deg Celsius. I've checked my wave and it's only capable of getting up

I am having problems with SMT electrolytic capacitors expanding and changing values after going through our reflow. The reflow profile we use includes temperatures of 200 deg C for 60 seconds and 230 deg C for 30 seconds. We need to use this profil

I'm sure this isn't the same situation, but we did have a selective solder machine with crazy dross and solder ball build up. Turns out the operator switched the low pressure nitrogen line used for solder level and the high pressure nitrogen line fo

In a previous lifetime, we had a selective solder machine where I would see solder splashes in the roof of it. I thought someone might have been putting the solder extremely high. But when it was melting there would be bubbles that burst. The manufac

Can you use 96s solder wire on a pcb that has been plated with standard 60/40? if so what are the effects on the proerties of the 96s? If you cannot mix the two solders is there a more effective way than braid of removing the 60/40 from the plating?

Russells: You can mix the two solders you mentioned, assuming by "96s" you meant "96Sn / 4Pb". If you heat the two tin / lead alloys to a liquid state, you�ll form a tin / lead solution with properties different from either of the two solders. The

High-temp ball Sn10Pb90 + eutectic solder paste is common place for MLC reflow. Temperatures necessary to alloy the high-temp ball Sn10Pb90 and eutectic solder would be high enough to compromise interposer, board and many components. What are your:

I am considering using high-temp ball Sn10Pb90 + eutectic solder paste for MLC reflow (no underfill). You can see that there is no Intermetallic bond for the paste and the balls. Under high stress/shock condition, the solder joints develop micro c

I think what Chunks meant is... TOOLING = THOSE POTS So basically, if some of your SMT or Through-Hole parts move around via a redesign or a respin, you will incur tooling costs (TOOLING is "THOSE LITTLE POTS FULL O' SOLDER.") When you're research
