The first process in the SMT industry is solder paste printing. After the solder paste printing is completed, electronic components are attached to PCB pads through a SMT machine, and then reflow soldered. A preliminary PCB board is roughly processed. SMT is a combination of multiple devices, and such a line is called an SMT production line. Our common PCBA is processed through this process. In SMT technology, each process is very important, and poor quality can be caused by different process defects. Today, we are discussing the causes and countermeasures of SMT printing collapse.

The melting temperatures of most lead-free solder alloys are somewhat higher than that of eutectic Sn/Pb solder, and many of the alloys tend to wet typical contact pads less readily. This tends to narrow down the fluxing and mass reflow process windows for assembly onto typical organic substrates and may enhance requirements on placement accuracy. Flip chip assembly here poses some unique challenges. The small dimensions provide for particular sensitivities to wetting and solder joint collapse, and underfilling does not reduce the demands on the intermetallic bond strength. Rather, the need to underfill lead to additional concerns in terms of underfill process control and reliability. Relatively little can here be learned from work on regular SMT components, BGAs or CSPs.
