Hi Solderdoctor! Days been great especially as it's nearly over. Don't see many of those machines over here anymore due to healthy competition from local supplier. Only been in industry myself nineteen years so spring chicken I suppose. Mind you sold

Bruce, Using a foam fluxer with no-clean flux is a very touchy situation. It is imperative that the specific gravity of any flux be maintained within the manufacturers recommendations. If it is not, you will get icicles and bridging. Maintaining the

Vince Frank is probably not still here. Management at SMTnet chooses to keep all threads alive, turning a deaf ear to forum user requests to close threads after a reasonable period of time. The person that reopened this thread did so in all good c

Yikes!! In-line cleaning, to clean cosmetic and benign residues (from a NO-CLEAN) flux... You sure you can't switch fluxes? Another variable with residues is the solder mask. Depending on mask type (glossy, matte, semi-gloss, or semi-matte), will

Hi, Yes, I would hate to resort to cleaning, but the product must be clean. We have been using palettes to keep most of the flux off the PCB, but there is still residue around the connectors. Does anyone suggest a good no clean flux to use with le

Hello Solder Doctor; I would be very interested in your file regarding wave process improvements. I have sent an email to you and I hope it gets to you. I have found some other tips from Speedline Technologies. They have a trouble shooting chart th

Grant, Newer lead-free fluxes have 6%-10% solids content - more activator, therefore leave more "visible" residues. Old technology tin-lead fluxes got down to as low as around the 4%-6% range (I'm going off memory, so me might be wrong)... You'll
