Hello! I've had the same problem about one Jear ago. We had exessive building of voids in the solder joints. I recomment to take a pincer to break off some of the components. If the solder joint is good, the copper pad will stay at the solder joint

We've never seen the defect that you describe, but in wave soldering-land blowholes usually are caused by moisture in the board that out-gasses through the too thin plating of through holes. * Bandaid fix: bake the boards * Long-term fix: Obtain boar

Hello guys ! I have a problem, I am finding some blow holes in the solder join in a resistors pad, can this be because of high humidity in the board? does baking the boards fix the problem? thanks

How many % were affected? If a few,it can be caused bcoz of PCB coating. We had encountered it and PCB house replaced for faulty boards. Since then, we do test first if we hve to solder PCBs from this PCB house.

Hi, in my experience, the humidity is trapped in the solder paste. Otherwise you can also try to : adjust preheat profile, and /or increase paste viscosity, and /or increase paste metal content (they are the most common causes).

Hi Any, This is from an earlies thread "Solder Ball After Reflow Process". Date: August 16, 2006 01:52 PM Author: Russ Subject: Solder Ball After Reflow Process Oven settings are meaningless here. What does the board see? It is the paste we a

Can anyone tell me if there is a formula for finding the after reflow height of solder with no part attached? I have to print some pads that do not have any parts but there can not be more than 1.5mil of solder on the pad after reflow. I am going to

What is the solids content of your solder? 50%??? Then, theoretically, if the aperture is 1:1, you'll have 2 thou of solder on your pads.

can some one give me some suggestion to solve the problem. we are using cooksun/alphametal rma9086 paste for our screenprinting. after the reflow we see lot of solder ball on the board. we have maintained the exact profile given by the manufacurer. w

1. use 6-7mils stencil. 2. reduce aperture opening to 60-70% of pad size. 3. check viscosity of solder paste. According to that you might want to alter your print speed and pressure. Cheers Indy
