Hi Wolfgang, Thanks for the response. We had a similar situation to yours with some white tin samples that sat around for about eight months. Samples soldered right after they arrived soldered better than the ones we soldered eight months down the

Steve, I have done countless board profiling and oven reflow profiles. Here are the critical factors on you need to address. What is your board surface finish, if it is something like an OSP it will need a good amount of an active (aqueous) flux to

Wolfgang, I appreciate your continued feedback! The main reason that I shortened the Time Above Liquidous (TAL) was it appeared that I was burning off all of the flux from the paste. By shortening the TAL to 45 seconds and decreasing peak temp to

Chris, Some ramblings- Your choice depends on factors like which defects you're looking for, bugdet, quality inspection philosophy, high or low mix environment, sample sizes or 100%, and so on. Are you going to test 100% of the product coming off t
