We are using selective soldering pallet, which the soldering flux is Interflux 2005M. We encountered the poor hole fill mainly at the heat sink components. Initially we tried to apply more heat but tend to overkill the flux activity. After some modif

Hi Guys I think you should all be looking at the Nousstar lead free machine this machine has been approved with some of the larger oems and has a good base in Europe and the uk we have one and the design is excellent we are using Aim for class 3 prod

Hi Grant, I've seen a couple of good fluxes on lead free - WF-7742 from Indium & JS-EU-01 from Koki. I'm sure everyone else has a good one too - just make sure it is one formulated for the elevated temperatures involved. Cheers, Rob

There is one solder you guy want to consider, that is SCS7 from Asahi. It is Sn Cu & Si, and it is the lowest price at the moment. We had been changing our pot from SAC, then SACX, and recently to SCS7. The result is better than all other solders. I

We are using SN100C in both our wave and selective machines and have very good results. We also using it for ROHS hand soldering. It flows better than SAC305, the joints are shinny just like Sn63/37. We are looking into using SN100C as our paste b

SN100C is being used by 95% of our customers over the SAC305. The main reasons are Cost big savings easily $10.00 lb, nice shiny solder joints good for quality inspection. Very few people are using SN100C in SMT Due to increased temperature requireme

We started with SN100C from the very beginning when we purchased our selective solder machine. It has been working well for us. I can't speak to what happens when changing over to it, but I've heard of many companies using SN100C for selective sold

I tried some SN100C from AIM... On only one array. It flowed well on the chips but did not like the finish on the SOT23's on the board. I did not have enough arrays to mess around, so we switched it over to SAC305 and had no issues. I'm guessing w

CMiller, Thanks for the valuable info! We are in the midst of lead-free deployment and need to know good alloy choices at both wave and ERSA. I have heard the same things regarding SAC305's price for bar solder, but don't yet know what the process

We have been seeing continued difficulty with solder shorts and/or insufficient barrel fill with our Juki selective solder machine while using SAC305. We want to switch to something in the SN100 series, but we do not know enough to seperate the hype
