I'd appreciate advise in the following issue: A significant batch of PCBs failed on de-lamination. The failure was identified, of course, only after the assembly. There is a big variety of components (BGA 1mm, BGA 0.8 mm, FQPs and other SMT componen

Robert: On your balls: Solder suppliers make several "standard balls" and can advise you. On your cleaner: Recycling water / direct to drain? Most batch cleaner suppliers can advise you on recycling and filtering systems to keep you out of troub
