You ned to speak with an apps engineer from a paste supplier that can go through their alloys. I know Indium has such alloys. Any vendor should be able to supply you a list of alloys avbl in NC paste with their liquidous points.

Most robust wave soldering machines will cope with lead free alloys. The temperatures in air that we have run has been between 260-265C. In my opinion the dross generation has not been significantly effected. I was doing a workshop for a well known

What do you mean the solder must "survive" 260C? What is your target temperature? Is it dictated by a component, the substrate or the solder alloy? Do you require a eutectic alloy? If not, the selection of alloys grows. (these are from memory...n

Tin antimony mp = 236-240C 80Au / 20SN mp = 280C sn25 Ag10 sb = 365C There are very few high temperature service alloys. how about filling a 1400lb pot with 80% Gold! What is the application?

Thanks Greg Our main problem is that we are putting small number PCB through, about300 PCB, size180*250. Such number order our customer in week. In result we got such high solder consumption and high production cost. We will tray to use antiacidant.

If you are saying you're going through 1kg/h while only producing 300 pcbs a week and the rest of the time the machine is standing still, then 1.there is something seriously wrong with your machine or 2. check if an operator is suddenly covered in sh

What volume of boards are you putting through. 1Kg per hour does sound very high but then again it does depend on volume Using an antioxidant is a must with Lead Free some alloys have additions in them to start with but those drop out with use so th

I AM JUST EVALUATION LEAD FREE EVALUATION AND FOUND THE BIG PROBLEM OF SOLDER CRACK BETWEEN TERMINAL OF COMPONENT AND THE INTERMETALLIC LAYER OF LEAD FREE ALLOY BUT DON'T FIND ANY CRACK BETWEEN SOLDER AND SURFACE OF PCB , COULD YOU HELP ME VERIFY T

Hello, Some questions.... Are you running lead free? What alloy? What�s your pot temp at? Temp of the board after preheat? Are you getting any solder in the barrels (
