A good solder connection with heavy ground plane requires: * Plenty of heat [Is the preheater located too far from the wave? Whenever you look at board temperature, there is a sharp decrease in temperature between the preheater and the wave.] * Conta

I agree with most of the other suggestions here, but 90 C for a topside preheat temp seems low to me. I remember aiming for 98 to 104 C for topside temp just before hitting the solder. Boards that had large ground/power planes or a lot of layers I wo
