Brad- Try doing a search of the archives. I'm sure you will pull up many discussions to help you out. The question you pose comes up every 2-3 months it seems....perhaps it's beaten to death. Rick

Make sure that you are running the right leadfree profile. You may want to verify that it is correct with thermocouples. Use Indiums Tacflux023, This should work. As far as cleaning them after this I will have to leave up to you. Russ

Short of buying a closed look wash system, what other machines/processes are available for localized removal of flux that is not operator intensive. already familiar with Branson ultrasonics and just washing in alcohol but what else is out there?

Just curious� Why only localized cleaning? Why not clean the entire board? Localized cleaning by nature is labor intensive. Mike Konrad Aqueous Technologies (909) 944-7771 ext 29 www.aqueoustech.com konrad@aqueoustech.com

Mike, I totally understand your position. We find ourselves in two opposite camps. If no-residue was impossible my company would not be in business today. Lets focus on the topics so we can help people with their problems. Patrick

That's what I thought it was. We may very well contract this out. We don't have underfill capability and the volumes may not warrant us investing. Do you know of someone doing this? I don't know at this time if it is the flip chip or the wire

We us DL Technology on our 3800. I guess they can ship to Europe. They are less expensive and work better. They have a website; it should be easy to find. John S
