Hi, Your right guys, and we turned off the chip wave, and most of the problem went away. It looks much better, and we are getting a slight bridging on a USB connector at the front edge of the PCB and a little adhesion, but not any where as much as w

Hi all, A quick question to see if anyone can solve my issue. We are having problems with a particular board we run through our wave solder on a pallet. The board is populated with about 20 fuse clips, and one clip on almost every board gets fille

Hi Grant, Boy, how do I say this - I might have to agree with Wave Master Larry. (Yeah, yeah - I know; Davef and Dr. Shocker will "burn me" again) "We" also solder large thru-hole connectors on with a selective solder machine. They measure 4 by 8

Hi Grant, You definitely have a pre-heat problem and not a flux problem. Pallets together with the BNC connectors put a large thermal demand on your pre-heating. 3 zones would be a good investment even with leaded solder due to the high thermal dema

Hi, I would also be interested in this thread, but our problem has a different twist to it. We have good results from our reflow with Koki no clean paste, however when we pass the boards through the wave solder machine, the flux in that leaves a fog

We have a Soltec Deltawave with single nozzle spray fluxer, chipwave, and waveform. It preforms well. I am not fimilar with Electrovert models so I can only give you some of the pitch I got when I went back East for training. Features I like about th

Hi, Thanks guys for all the suggestions. I am going to check what options we have for top side heating. Do people recommend we get convection for that? Also, we seem limited to 60% in the machine setup, and does anyone know how to run the top lam

We installed a Soltec Delta 3 a few months ago and have been trying to run with a VOC free no clean. We're using SN100C in the pot. We are spraying the material and have top/bottom preheat. Evaporation of the water in the flux is a bit of a stru

6 deg is std angle. Some machines have option to adjust angle from 5 to 7. Maybe yours does. If you have an Electrovert wave machine you can get the Omega option. This option vibrates the wave to reduce surface tension. It does a nice job on rectangu
