| 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

I am using a 18 mil and below water soluble solder paste (89.5-25-80). I have never used this type of paste. The PCB has a fine pitch component of which I cannot prevent bridging. The paste coverage on the pad looks like it is slumping. It is not a n

Hi guy Does anyone have experiance with printing problem between solder paste water soluble 62/36/2 and gold plating PCB? I do have problem about insufficient solder after printing although I used the same printing parameter as when I print with ano

You have provided very little information. Two similar possibilites come to mind: poor pad solderability protection and old boards. POOR SOLDERABILITY PROTECTION: Maybe the nickel plating under the gold is oxidized, contaminated, or otherwise very

Hi Dave Thanks for your information. The problem that I found is paste not stick well on pads ( solder paste printing process). When the table move down (PCB saperate from stencil) some of paste stick on aperture instead pads. Solder paste : Delta

"Poor release" (paste hanging-up in the stencil holes) could have three main (or combination of) causes: 1 Equipment: Stencil is too thick. Specifically, a 6 thou stencil should be OK, providing you don�t violate the area and aspect ratios in the fi

Best thing to do, is consult your solder paste supplier, bring him/her in, and ask for their humble professional opinion? If they refuse, strongly consider switching to a supplier, with responsive "humble professional opinions" to share, one that spr

Sorry I forgot to provide enough information. Stencil thickness is 6 mil Aperture width is 10 mil Aspect ratio (aperture area / wall area) = 0.72 Solder paste mesh size, type 3 (-325 +500) With this aspect ratio we can printing without any probl

Is there any harm in washing SMT soldered with NoClean paste? The PCA has some large thru-hole connectors that we would prefer to do as water soluble on out selective solder but the SMT consists of LGA's and other low parts that we would not be able
