I've had this problem myself, though in using water soluables. But the process to eliminate it is still the same. There are three possible causes for this to occure. Too much humidity, to much solder, and too much heat. Are you leaving the paste

Hi Luis A white mask typically helps in the marking process since you are not reliant upon the PCB layers to create the contrast. Laser marking is really an etching process, so if your laser is set properly (power and focus) the goal with mask is to

Looks like you have a great wetting of your paste :). Once body has been in contact with molten solder, the package could suffer damages on the body(outside and inside) and on the circuitry inside. It is considered a defect. I have seen that before a

Just to nitpick a little, collecting defect data and reacting to it really isn't an SPC function. Cal's recommendations (determine critical processes, assess process capability and acceptable limits) are spot on and are pretty much the definition of

Russ, On both instruments, I ran them through the wave 20 times each using identical profiles and wave parameters, and then used statistical formulas to measure the variation and repeatability of each. I had these all in Excel, but that was around 1

Thanks, gentlemen. All points well taken, and some hit pretty close to home. Our pick-and-place programmer assures me that coplanarity isn't the issue because the machine won't (or can't) place parts beyond an acceptable criteria. It's an Amistar

Steve, I have done countless board profiling and oven reflow profiles. Here are the critical factors on you need to address. What is your board surface finish, if it is something like an OSP it will need a good amount of an active (aqueous) flux to

I can't speak too much as to why your joints are appearing dull, even with the booster. I can recommend a new chemistry that Kyzen has out that I've been running for about a year now. Price is about the same, it can be run at low(er) concentrations

If you hold your board sideways in a 90 degree angle you apply a force of 1 g to your components. 1 g translates into 32 ft / sec. square. This is not too much acceleration for fearless roller coaster drivers but Melf�s and Tantalums can fall off at

Is there any good articles to read on solder paste? (just to see if I may of missed something) Sometimes I can not believe the people I have to work with. We had a panel with two “Quad Flat Package” (QFP) one in each of the two circuits, almost fr
