Hi, I'm going to evalute new solder paste and flux for wave-solder. Appreciate you could advise what are the things need to look out during the evalution. Any recommend step or proper way of doing solder paste and flux evalution. Appreciate your he

J-STD-001C, 7.2.1 Flux Application says words to the effect of: When an external flux is used in conjunction with flux cored solders, the fluxes shall be compatible. Regardless of whether these are or not flux cored solders, this begs the question:

Hi all Pls. help advise. Our board use RMA solder paste (Pb-free Sn96.5/Ag3.0/Cu0.5). Can we use No-clean paste flux (Delta 670S1) in rework process? If it can not be used, why?. Thanks very much for your advice. Surachai

Well first off I wouldn't evaluate paste for a wave process. I would use solder bar instead. Flux - top side fillets and no shorting on the solder side, does it clean well after processing if using water soluble flux. How wide is the process win

Hi I don't see in your note any particular reasons why you couldn't. If it solders well and passes what ever specifications you are using than everything is OK. If your repair faces some soldering or rework challenges where a more agressive flux is

We see spattered(spitting of flux or solder to nearby area) solder/flux on gold fingers.We view the gold fingers area under 30x before reflow and it is cleaned but after reflow we see flux droplets or solder on gold fingers. We tried to changed a new

Search the fine SMTnet Archives for background on solder on gold fingers. As we recall: * Paste selection * Proper reflow recipe tuning ... are important.

Q1 Can anyone explain to me what is the clean and non clean solder? A1 The trend away from CFCs has lead many users to evaluate switching to no-clean soldering processes. The term "no-clean" is actually a common misnomer when used to describe a flux

Just how cold do you store your paste? And what are your solder paste reps like? Here they fall over each other giving support for their paste. And have you seen the problem with flux separation or have you only heard about it?

do you not have a problem with flux seperating from when it was chilled? due to our high mix low volume we really cant afford to have solder paste waiting for an hour or so till its ready before we can build
