| i had a problem here, during the wave soldering process, we apply a water soluble mask on the gold finger to protect it from contamination. But after washing, there is still some mask left on the gold finger. | Can anyone pls advise is there any pa

Hi, I am currently using a peelable mask prior to wave soldering and have started exploring water soluble/washable masks. The mask will be used with water based and alcohol based flux. Are there any compatability issues to concider and how will this

There is a company in Florida that was using water soluble solder mask with their wash system. The gentleman to call there is Lynn Hurt, their Sr. Staff Engineer. Switchboard number is 352-799-6520. Brian

Water soluble masks are great in my book. After having used the latex type, I found that the water soluble will save a lot of time. I dont't use a closed loop system, but I do have a filter on my discharge line. I have not experienced any filter c

The latex should not influence your closed-loop filtration - unless of course it falls off during cleaning. The issue would be with water soluble materials. As Dave (hi Dave) said, the clay based version of these will clog/blind/knacker your carbon

Dave F, We are currently using a latex based ambient/thermal cure material that is applied by hand or automated dispensing equipment. Printing is an option for us, but we have not had much luck with this particular material. The mask is peeled off a

Mikeh: You can't let that stuff get to your carbon bed. Literally, you can watch your bed die. The clay coats the carbon, entombing it. I've heard talk of using a RO filter as a front-end buffer to the recycling system, but know of no one who has

We are looking for a new water soluble mask to cover SMT parts through wave. We currently use TechSpray wondermask w 2205. It works decent, but tends to leave a residue on boards even going at the slowest speed in the washer. Any suggestions would be
