Water soluable dots will wash off after reflow. A water soluable liquid mask will work as well. dots are better for defined (round)holes, whereas the liquid mask works well with odd shapes.

Hello Henry, Tombstoning is caused (In most cases) by a force imbalance on either side of the component. As the solder becomes liquidous the surface tension of the liquid will pull the component to the center of the liquidous area. To solve the probl

It's [maybe], because you melt [reflow] the itty, bitty solder pellets [that were formed from a liquid solder] in the solder paste. * Wave solder is melted solder bars [that were formed from a liquid solder], also, but someone named it wave soldering

I am looking for a consistent method of applying no clean liquid flux to solder pads. My main concern is if I use a standard air-over type dispenser mounted to an automated arm that the liquid flux will make a mess and not be consistent. I'm not to

ken, in order to improve the wettability I suppose.... But it seems that jimk wants N2 for the reflow owen even if he does not need N2... ==== jimk: see air-liquide, linde gaz, and praxair , you can by N2 liquid in tank , or any other conditionnemen

Russ, Be careful on how you determine your liquidous point. Sure 205-210�C is fine if your paste and the solderability protection on pads and component leads are near eutectic solder and things worked according to plan, but in real life it doesn't

Use a spray fluxer, like those used in wave soldering. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for supplier names. We understand that spray fluxing is significantly different than dispensing. What do you want/expect to accomplish by dispensing liquid flux

This recipe is nice for leaded soldering. The time above liquidous plus 20*C is too short for mixed alloy soldering. Remember all that nonleaded stuff that you add to the solder acts to increase the liquidous temperature of the alloy. Try slowing

if is regardless of fluxes or population complexity my opinion is that inline aqueous with kysen liquid or other is the best because this liquid wash all type of flux and the aqueous wash all population complexity

I know DEK is selling some dielectric cleaning liquid that is 20 times more expensive than alcohol. You should put this liquid on your stencil cleaner.
