It is one of our pastes...Almit LFM48 W TM-HP, a high reliability no clean solder paste based on SAC305 with a size 4 powder. It's a paste that works so well we have thousands of users of it worldwide. Why are you using SN100C alloy paste ? I imagin

hi all! i have a 5 zone BTU (V70) have it set up at 120, 150, 180, 190, 230 and 22 IPM. but i having 1 here 1 there 0402 tomstone, need advise how to set up the best profile to avoid tomstone. i'm using INDIUM 6.3 W.S lead paste. thank you.

Check out this paper: http://www.xs4all.nl/~tersted/PDF_files/Plexus/tombstoning.pdf You can also search the SMTnet archives for more information. If you're tombstones are random as you describe, likely the problem is not with the profile; but som

Not as such. Generally, people tailor their profiles to produce glam solder connections on their boards. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for discussion on the factors affecting solder reflow recipes. What is the best way to get these PCB made to s

It probably depends on the Silver content. We are also using Sn62Pb36Ag2. The paste manufacturer told us that the reason for the small silver content was so that it could wet better to the lead-free component and board finishes bearing silver.

Call Heller directly, and give them the oven, and relative thermal density of the board, as well as the solder paste that you're using. They'll be able to give you a baseline profile to start from (both RTS and RSS). Otherwise, use a thermocouple p

starting point with zone settings would be, 100 / 160 / 200 / 225 / 260 deg C...but you'll have to check the exact profile on the pcb with a reflow profiler....making sure you meet the paste spec and making sure you don't heat any devices up to quic

Hi, We are using ws488 sn100c paste. Anyone have a profile for a 5 zone oven that has worked well for you?

While you're waiting, consider giving your paste manufacturer a call. They should have a database of recommended, or starting point profiles based on what oven you have. cheers, ..rob

That's very helpful, and much appreciated. I know it's a long shot, but I don't suppose you know what paste they are using with these settings. I am testing with sn100c ws488. Thanks! kinos
