Dave, There is not really a �smart� or scientific way to check this but I know of easy ways and very effective ways. Fex. an easy way to check is with a 3� spatula, you hold the spatula at the same angle as the board and drag trough the wave simula

We have always baked our assembled boards prior to wave solder, but have recently learned that there are some companies out there who don't. I checked with one of my supervisors, and he said that baking is recommended but not required. I'm wonderin

Lead free is not define as NO lead and "a maximum concentration value of 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials for lead shall be tolerated." Check below link. So replaced your solder from the pot when exceed 0.1%. http://www.leadfree.org/files

We do not bake any of our boards prior to wave solder. If we did we would have one heck of a large oven. I would assume you are concerned about moisture sensitive components. In most cases your top side parts should only get to 80 degrees centigarde

As Wolfgang says: Conveyor speed may be too high. Excuse me for not stripping-out my repetition from your list, but other machine adjustments to consider are: * Using more efficient [higher specific gravity] flux. [Got it!!!] * Adjusting wave shape
