Will the Euro sink or float in a leadfree solder pot?

I believe I read somewhere, that using leadfree solder in the wave, the dross will actually collect in the bottom of the solderpot. I can't remember where I read this (maybe a nightmarrish dream I had one night). If so, how do you remove it from the

Morning All Attended APEX this year and this quesiton came up quite a bit from users. I had some conversations with my co-workers on the wave side and others at the show. Dross is an oxide, lighter than the metals so it floats just as pmdeuel st

Marc: You say, "Copper will sink to the bottom of a pot since it is lighter ..." Why does it sink if it's lighter? What is copper lighter than?

Eric: For the amount of dross that you're removing, we're concerned that you could be loosing the balance of your solder alloy, because dross consists primarily of tin oxides. It has little lead in it, beyond than the lead content of the solder that

Eric, We also have a UPK 650C. Our machine was configured for N2 and using the ConTour nozzle. If you're using this nozzle without N2 you're creating tons of dross unnecessarily not to mention probably getting tons of icicling. We found out the h

We don't know if our solder pot is producing too droos or not. When we get it out of the solder pot, we have to add around 50 lbs of solder bars. I think it's an important quantity. I want to know your feeling about that. We use Alpha Metal Hiflo Bar

How does SN100C perform using Selective Pallets? We switched over to SACX about 5 weeks ago and the results are brilliant. We are getting better results than before believe it or not. Also dross foramtion is a lot less. aj...

On Saturday the 3rd, I offloaded nearly 1200 pounds of solder from my Electrovert, did the tin purge and loaded nearly 1200 pounds of sn100c back into my solder pot. It was a hell of a job, but we got it done in 8 hours. We've been running with this
