Lead-free wave and selective soldering systems require exposing the flux to slightly higher soldering temperatures. Lead-free alloys traditionally wet metal surfaces more slowly than tin-lead. Kester liquid fluxes for lead-free assembly have new acti

Thx to everyone who replied. we will be running single sided thru hole and double sided smt, 186 rosin flux cause they tell me it can take the heat needed for 18 layer pwbs. some long leads. also they are ordering in pallets to deal with the irregu

Hi all, I have a question regarding some wave pallets having metallic traces of Titanium. The solder mask is blistering in some locations on the PCB and I am wondering if this Titaniumn may have an influence by incresing locally the temp. Also we ar

This paper is a report of a study made to determine the maximum allowable impurities in solder used for wave soldering applications. This report concludes with a list of impurities compiled from actual analyses of solder which caused production problems. A list of recommended maximum allowable impurities will assist in establishing reliable quality controls on the purity level of the solder in a wave soldering machine.
