What is the industry standard for wave and selective solder PPM defect rate for a world class facility, any responses are appreciated.

Here is a nugget from the Data Sheet... Wave Soldering: Excess moisture on the PCB during soldering may lead to random solder balling and poor wetting of some solder joints. IT IS IMPORTANT that the flux solvent carrier (water) is fully evaporated a

Sounds like possibly too little preheat. Russ

Likely causes of this are: -Preheat temp. too low -too much dross -uncured epoxy -PCB contamination ...also varify the solder flow over the wave is smooth.

MF300S is quite an old flux, & a lot has happened since then on the flow solder front - are you sure it's designed for Lead free, or is it just a traditional flux that SHOULD work OK with Lead free?

Hi, I am experience problems while testing wave soldering SMT components that are glued on the solderside (lead free). Between de leads of SOx type IC's and SOT's develop a great deal of solder beads. I have been using a RSS temp.profile while spr

Is the flux rated for lead free? These higher temps will cause most lead rated fluxes to burn off prior to the wave. Jerry

Sounds like your flux to me. Since you cannot change the board or the machine, changing flux would be one question mark you could take away with a phone call and a sample. You will really be surprised how different fluxes can affect your final prod
