DaveF is correct in directing you to the archives. This problem type has been discussed many times, it is quite common. Questions to ask yourself and provide us with answers are: It always happens or random? All assemblies or just one? solder paste

Thanks for the replies, - solder paste used ? NC ? other ? Water soluble 63/37 paste - reflow in Air or N2 ? Infrared - temp ramp up before soack (�C/second) ? Will have to check. This profile has been used on numerous gold plated boards in our

we are using solder paste WS609 and OM5100.Relow oven: forced convection type. For WS609 and OM5100, straight ramp up profile is suitable for low to medium thermal mass assemblies and preheating may be required for high thermal mass assemblies. How

Thank you PWH, All good points. I use a semi-automatic printing process not a screen printer so if more solder balls and beads are created then I would be creating more re-work and that is exactly what I do not want to do. I guess the best thing to

Still cant get a fix to SMD soldering problems, Joints still look strong shiny and well wetted, although when pulled lead still coming away from pad, leaving a dull grainy looking space. This is occuring just after reflow (convection), no other proc

| After switching from No-clean flux to Water soluble (Kester)we encountered voids problem (X-ray and microsectioning). Reducing the apperture sizes made the voids smaller but did not eliminate them. So we had to go back to No-clean. Any idea why voi

We have been using Coilcraft 1008CS inductors for several years. We have had problems with them turning green when we use lead-free solder paste. We have tried several solder pastes (water soluble and no-clean)from different manufacturers, but the

This is a No-Clean solder paste, therefore, it's intended not to be cleaned. If you need your assemblies to be cleaned post assembly, I would highly recommend a water soluble solder paste. It will provide much better looking boards in the long run.

I had problems with white residues on both WS609 and WS 3060.The WS 3060 turned out to be a carbonized material.The composition after analysis (Energy Dispersive X-ray spectrum) turned out to be tin,tin,phosphore and cloline and tin. Alpha also have

Lazy operators empowered by management. Sounds like you may have some nepotism? Since it falls to you to clean up someone else’s mess I have an idea for you. I once worked for a company that had a large wash sink with a hand sprayer very similar to
