I sent you a couple of charts to assist with your troubleshooting. One is the Electrovert Wave Solder Troubleshooting chart and the other is Sandia Labs/Electrovert Optimum Solder Contact Time. Electrovert has a 6 deg. conveyor angle standard on the

If you are, in fact, running a No-Clean solder paste: Different no-clean solder pastes will leave different types of (benign) residues. If your paste has been qualified from a Bellcore/SIR/Electromigration standpoint, any residues remaining will NO

It is pretty hard to wave solder fine pitch parts bad enought with 0.5mm let alone 0.4mm It can be done but need N2 inert wave soldering & need layout design to accommodate this... Iy it is a QFP need to run part 45 deg into wave and if possible in

WML, I won't dispute math but I will definitely point out either bad math or a missed target. In your example, you are comparing "Energy used to heat the solder and keep it warm" versus "Energy used to keep the solder warm" and fully discount the fa

Q1:What is the relation between component standoff and drop missing? A1:component standoff will identify either solder paste at SMT side can form the fillet at component terminal or not. Drop/missing component is totally out of the topics since i jus

We have an issue with our Seho Wave solder machine. The machine is an 8040C, early 90's model. The problem is that continues to heat the solder up, even once it has reached its specified temp. If we set it for 250 degrees, it will go to 250 then c

We are mounting an microphone device (SMT package) onto a PCB - how? Surface mount line or hand soldering? Contamination can only come from the solder paste, solder wire, flux, or burning the component/PCB assembly during hand soldering. Unless the

What you have run up against is the unfortunate consequence of the transition period from Sn-Pb to Pb-free. In the past 2-3 years there have been several studies highlighting the differences in reliability between mixed metal systems, Sn/Pb, and SAC

From what I see, you have a couple of options... 1. Hand solder the secondary side LED's. This is only a good option if you're going to be at low-ish volumes. Higher volumes tend to necessitate more automation to reduce production costs. However

Careful on fine pitch QFPs. They will be your weakest joint if your parts are no-lead. And don't think you can simply run a no-lead profile either. Depending on your paste, you cannot simply run your profile in the no-lead temps and expect your fl
