Hi, The major reason is that the flux is still "wet", you should fix the temp. profile (specialy preheat zone) so the evaporation of flux carriers will be better (anyway not to much !). Recommended: 1st preheat zone heating to ~70C , 2nd&3rd prehea

Hi everbody, I'm facing some soldering problems with a Diode (SMA) during wave soldering process. During this process almost all the time one of the component pads have no solder, according to the picture dsc000604 attached. Some considerations: * T

We've got lots of connectors at my place of employment like this. What I do is... I run these "slower than molasses in January" - we're talkin' 2 Ft/Min. conveyor speeds. Obviously this will have an effect on your thermal profile so compensate acco

We have used the SN100C for over a year now with fanastic results. We use the SAC305 for SMT and SN100C wire exclusively. There are no problem mixing the alloys. I am also on the commitee for the NASA testing. The SN100C did out perform SAC and SnPb

What you are most likely dealing with: Insufficient Pure Sn layer ( multiple causes ) Because elevated temperatures accelerate the diffusion process, the thickness of the Pure Sn layer will reduce during every thermal cycle... ( bakeing PCBs, S

This looks like it may be a good application for an Air-Vac or Wenesco type solder station. It is a solder pot that has a small motor to pump solder up through a chimney. You can put different nozzles on the top of the chimney, so you only apply sold

Not as such. Generally, people tailor their profiles to produce glam solder connections on their boards. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for discussion on the factors affecting solder reflow recipes. What is the best way to get these PCB made to s

Since your budget is between 25 and 30K I would say you have plenty of options. Electrovert and Vitronics are both good solid machines. Seho is another option. Seho is extremely user frendly and maintenance freindly and easy to profile however, it is

You can measure temperatures any place that you would like, but the issue is the temperature of the solder. We've seen solder temperatures that vary from lead to lead on the same component. Why don't you want to measure the temperature of your so

We're used to placing the theromcouple on the solder joint and securing it with thermally-conductive UV adhesive. It's quick & easy to apply, and I've only seen a couple degrees difference from high-temp solder technique. Thoughts?
