Robert: On your balls: Solder suppliers make several "standard balls" and can advise you. On your cleaner: Recycling water / direct to drain? Most batch cleaner suppliers can advise you on recycling and filtering systems to keep you out of troub

Dear Robert, On PBGA assembly, BGA sphere shrinkage number depends to the following factors, a. BGA Sphere size (before reflow) b. Solder mask opening diameter As far as I know, no formular has been established yet. Most of my friends just collect

DO NOT Mix Technologies.... If you are using a no clean solder paste use a no clean wave solder process. I have direct experience with using a no clean paste and a RA water-soluble wave solder process. When cleaning with the water wash system your

Folks, Thanks for all the info and suggestions but let me add a bit more to the pot. Our products work in a harsh environment and are classed as safety critical. Customer returns are our biggest concern, we don't get very many and feeling here seem

J-STD-001C, 7.2.1 Flux Application says words to the effect of: When an external flux is used in conjunction with flux cored solders, the fluxes shall be compatible. Regardless of whether these are or not flux cored solders, this begs the question:

Sure. Here's what you should do to apply repeatable amounts of flux on BGA during rework: * Squirt some gel flux on a plate or something like that that has a flat bottom and raised sides to corral the flux. * Cut notches into one edge of an old credi

Hi, We are running lead free at wave solder now and the spray flux system is down. If we are going to able the flux manually, what problem will we be facing with the excess flux able. Appreciate for the advise.
