Hi Dave - You are correct that I was not clear in my comments. I assumed Joris had seen the usual solder balls accompanying his blowholes. Nevertheless, Joris, my first two recommendations still stand. Increasing the dwell time of your leads in t

The standard machine is set from the factory at 7-9 degrees, 7 is the most standard, why are you considering the change? before doing any thing to the machine, first identify why? what type of defects are you seeing? I have found, depending on the t

Hi Shrek - Not sure why you think adjusting dwell time and preheats is a sales pitch, but I do appreciate your candor. These are proven, widely used techniques for attacking, eliminating and preventing the recurrence of blowholes. Since it is so ea

What you are most likely dealing with: Insufficient Pure Sn layer ( multiple causes ) Because elevated temperatures accelerate the diffusion process, the thickness of the Pure Sn layer will reduce during every thermal cycle... ( bakeing PCBs, S

Try titanium edge stiffners on the PCB before making solder pallets.

Sid, Try baking the boards before running, to insure no moisture. Baking out the moisture will help prevent warping. Should you need further assistance, we supply fixtures to force the board to stay flat to reduce to thermo shock during wave solde

There are some good suggestions here...reflow pallets, and copper balancing. We would also suggest verifying that your problem is not caused by moisture. How much time passed between first side and second side reflow, and how humid is the environme

Good afternoon all, I have been trying to find a solution to a defect I just noticed. After stencil printing and smt part placement on the secondary side of my boards, I run them through a wave soldering system. All my components got soldered perfe

Band width relates to conveyor speed to achive a 2 second contact time for Sn/Pb wave soldering. A typical conveyor speed is 150cm/min with a band width (contact band width between PCB and solder) of 5cm. Now for Pb-Free wave soldering a longer conta

I've installed a number of these machines here in the US, several of them with VOC free applications. I would need to get a bunch of questions answered before I could make any suggestions: What is the pcb width? length? conveyor speed? flow rate (mm
