Most companies are double sided paste and reflow, then selective soldering the thru-hole. This will give you the best results and with much more consistency than with Wave Soldering.

The issue is surface tension around the connector. Your tip needs to have more surface tension than the pins of the connector as it forms a cluster when being soldered. When I used to solder superfine connectors with a metcal iron it had a horses hoa

I sell wave solder optimizer in Philippines. I have sold many of this optimizer system. It cost less than US$10K. Most of my customer is happy with the performance except for some issues from customers like LCD not yet colored, uses RS232, upgrades

Hi Stefano, Although your concept of Wave soldering such devices is possible, I would look at an alternate solution. An easier way would be to Reflow solder all Bottom side SMD components with solder paste, followed by wave soldering for only through

Durastone pallets, we use lots of precision ones for selective wave soldering. An utter nightmare to machine - hideously fibrous. We use http://www.globaldatum.com/ for ours.

A thorough analysis is in order because laser point-to-point soldering lacks the flexibility of the bottom sided miniwave systems. My experience showed that heating profiles could be grossly affected by color temperature and thermal mass. This can be

Hello experts, Here is my problem: I have a board that has smt parts on one side and TH parts on the other. We designed special pallet for wave, but the pallet itself is 15mm thick, so we are still seeing some defects. Have any of you tried to find

You are right, RSS profile is not the correct description. I am using a profile which heats up quickly to let the flux spread. Next linear up to activate the flux and prevent thermoshock. My experience is however, that small changes in this profile

You will need to preheat the boards for a lead free selective solder process. A preheat module is critical for any wave or selective solder process, if you don't get the board preheated properly the solder is going to resist flowing to the top of the

..and he can put the flux in and keep it a secret too from his customer.. RSS profile on wave?? I never heard of a soak zone for wave preheat...you may be burning off your activator..hence, the beads. For wave preheat, your main goal is to ramp up
