Do you know why my solder paste sticks to the squeegee so much that it mis-prints and how can I prevent it from happening. I can only get about 3/4 prints before this happens.

Hi, We are using Sn/3.0Ag/0.5Cu solder paste on Pd/Ag pad metallization in one of our application. Could someone provide me information on the following: 1. How bad is the Leaching of Ag in SAC alloy and how it can be mitigated. 2. During reflow so

Mr. Wizard is not currently available. You get the wizzer. Maybe your dream date will show later. Get your own lab tests done. Show your potential customer that your boards are clean. That�s the issue. The issue is not how you go about cleaning

All of the discussion of "environmental controls" are a matter of degree, dependent on the requirements of the product that you manufacture. For example: shops assembling under-the-hood products have different requirements than shops making garage d

In an excellent previous thread davef mentions brass should be plated prior to soldering to prevent zinc leaching from the brass. It is reported once the zinc leaches, the joint is weak. He recommends copper or nickel plating. Would silver plating w
