Anyone have experience with Indium NC-SMQ92J solder paste used in an inert (N2) reflow oven?

Never used an inert atmosphere with this paste but always had great success with it. It leaves a pretty fair amount of residue but that was its only downside if you could call it that. do you need to run inert?

Its interesting. It appears I'm getting conflicting feeback from Indium. This says its not a problem... http://indium.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/indium.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_sid=kTDKGClg&p_lva=&p_faqid=355&p_created=1014734692&p_sp=cF9ncmlkc29

Used this paste on ENIG boards W/O N2 and had very good results. (0402's,BGA's,16mil FP) Never had the need to use N2 with this paste on our products. Running with N2 shouldn't hurt anything. The wetting properties should get even better than they ar

I am looking for a new semi automatic Stencil printer, and reflow oven that is capable of doing double sided boards with BGA�s. We currently own a Manncorp 4500R stencil printer https://www.manncorp.com/4x00_stencil_printers/index.php?view=overview&a

Ideal situation is get a technical rep from the solder paste supplier. They know their paste better, and should be able to work out a profile based on their paste and your oven. Again, a technical rep, not the sales guy.

What paste are using? You should referance the manufactures time and temperature specification. Running lead-free in a 5 zone oven can be done with out a problem but it is not production friendly. If you are concerned with through put I would look fo

If you have concerns, you can look at the datasheet for each component or contact one of their application or materials engineers and find out what the components are rated for...process-wise. IE, how long can I be in the oven with this part, at what

I am trying to optimize my reflow profile. i have a 5 zone oven. lead-free: for the 1st 3 zones, i am good, at about 150-200 deg for 150 seconds. during the 4th zone, i am at a temp of 200-220 for 50 seconds. during the 5th zone, i am at 220-245 f

I'm trying to get a better understanding of the cooking process of pcb's. The use of nitrogen in reflow and wave ovens. Seems to have a wide margin of acceptance as a standard gas to prevent oxidation of metals in the board. Has any one heard or us
