I would like to invite everyone to share/discuss information/knowledge/experience they have with the req's that are assumed to be valid for the temperature/time relation in the process of reflow soldering Pin In Paste, Intrusive Reflow or whatever yo

We are seeing un-Reflowed paste along the IC leads. There is only a very small amount imbedded in the flux, typically there is about 10 beads per lead. But on most leads. We are using no-clean Kester 256 paste (Easy Profile)We have not encountered th

I would be willing to bet that you are ramping up way too fast and possibly too hot/long of a soak and killing your flux activity. this will give the appearance of "no reflow" due to non-coalescence of the solder balls. check this board with the hel

The only problems I've ever had with 208's shifting out of alignment was with a board with too much HASL thickness. The lands had a convex profile and the parts kept slipping downslope. We put down a glue dot and ranted at our board supplier. Both

Looks like lack of wetting. What is the BGA ball material? Could be high temp. Could be improper profile. Could be paste sat on board too long / flux dryout. Could be co-plane mount and this ball touched at the end of reflow curve. Could be cont

We wound up using a ramp to spike profile with 50 sec. between 150C and 217C and 90 sec. above 217C. The idea being the flux is still active when it hits reflow, and it stays in reflow long enough for the weird alloy in the parts lead to wet. All par

Hello, We are looking for a lab and low volume reflow oven. I believe we want an IR/forced air combination oven? Nitrogen gas inlet would be good. Would like many adjustable temp profile segments. We saw the Manncorp T200N on their website. Is

we have been doing reflow on SLX PCBs and found out that when lidding, the components have been shifting. Has anyone been doing low temp lidding on SLX PCBs using the flowstar 4036 soldering system? If so, what low temp solder was used and profile

Consider measuring the temperature of the BGA solder balls during reflow. This will give you a more accurate impression of the actual soldering temperature than you are getting now. The 1/6/2011 SMT Express Newsletter contained an interesting arti
