Hello Could somebody inform us about real consumption of lead free solder alloy SN100C on your wave solder process. We do not use some antiaxidant and had had alloy consumption about 1 kg per hour. What is your experiance? All sugestion will be well

What volume of boards are you putting through. 1Kg per hour does sound very high but then again it does depend on volume Using an antioxidant is a must with Lead Free some alloys have additions in them to start with but those drop out with use so th

Thanks Greg Our main problem is that we are putting small number PCB through, about300 PCB, size180*250. Such number order our customer in week. In result we got such high solder consumption and high production cost. We will tray to use antiacidant.

If you are saying you're going through 1kg/h while only producing 300 pcbs a week and the rest of the time the machine is standing still, then 1.there is something seriously wrong with your machine or 2. check if an operator is suddenly covered in sh

Hi Joe, Try: S03X7C-56M from koki - http://www.ko-ki.co.jp which has cobalt in it to extend tip life or: SN100C from Nihon Superior, which is a nickel stabilised alloy that also extends tip life. The Koki solder flows better that any other leadfr

Hi All, after many years of talking about it we WILL be setting up a lead free line. What alloys and products would you recommend. We are seeting up a new wave machine here soon and could us some input.thanks

The LF wave solder solder alloy that marketing-types of other LF wave solder alloys compare themselves to is Nihon Superior SN100C

Inds, It's about time that lead-free components can stand higher temps "myth" stops. The only difference is the plating, the component itself has not changed. Can you give us an update on this threat? If you�re the same inds http://www.smtnet.com//

John, there have been quite a few discussion on Mixed Assemblies in this forum.. do a search.. you will get whole lot of information.. in addition - IF you are using Lead-free reflow profile...make sure the rated temp for Sn-Pb components is not vi

To all smt neters, In many different threads I have tried to bring awareness of the dangers lead free alloys pose to the reliability of solder connections. Many times those warnings have been waved by unscientific reports (from lead free solder manu
