I am having solder barrel fill issues on THM component, we follow, we follow IPC 610 E requirement. The barrel fill issues happen on signal & ground pin at connector & E-cap. I found out that most of the insufficient solder happen on the connector ag

Voiding, fracturing, barrel-fill, I'm sure there are some I'm missing.

YES there is an IPC target/acceptable spec In general terms the barrel thickness in the hole should be 1 mil (thou). IPC has an allowable limit lower around .75 with some other factors. I have been checking barrel plating on all incoming boards since

Hi I don't speak english very well but some time I had A similar problem but the diference that we only procesed a single side, my pcb have one via hole barrel close to the pad then the solder flow throu the hole, my problem was an insuficient solder

Has anyone heard of vias cracking (barrel from pad) when being wave soldered. Was told this was a big problem by contract pcb designer, he always tent vias because of this. The reason was that the solder filling the vias caused stressing and then sep

The guys that take our dross (and pay us for it) take our barrels that contain scrapped solder paste as well. Also in the barrels are the nitrile gloves and disposable towels used in solder paste handling and cleaning. They pay us for the metal c

Questions are: * You say 'voids', but you describe poor barrel fill. Are you seeing both? * Sometimes designers need to reduce the heatsink effect of large ground and power places, but this usually shows on the two upper corner pins, not all corners

Are there any good solutions for getting good barrel fill on PTH boards using Pb Free solder and No Clean flux. All of our boards are having issues getting minimum required fill per IPC. It does not matter if the board is 062 or thicker, any pin conn

I think your pre-heat temp is a little low for SAC 305 Soldering. Especially with a Pallet. You might want to try to add some time and temp to get the PWB itself preheated up to 150-160C. That should help with the barrel fill. Make sure your board

Hi ya'll!! We've got some PCB's in receiving inspection that has these little nodules in plating inside all of the barrels. These are microwave PCB's and have almost all of the surface area on both sides covered with with solid metal planes, and no
