Looks like poor wetting/solderability to me. I don’t see heel fillets on the leads where the solder balls up. The solder has to go somewhere. It won’t flow where it won’t wet. Try printing a bare board and run through reflow. If the solder balls up o

If the only difference between the two products is the board supplier I believe thats where I would start, we had a similar problem like this two months ago and it turned out to be a faulty (thin) HASL layer which did not meet our print tolerance. T

You need to take it a few steps farther. The main reason you would want to reject a certain % off print is because it made defects. So you need to see how far you can go without creating a defect and then establish that as your cut off and the need

We agree with your statements. 1. Having manually printed board will compromise your print and you don't know how much paste you have on each pad. 2. LEDs falling off that easily might be related to contamination, considering that your profile is not
