I would look at SST International and Sikama International. You might solder using forming gas. Forming gas is 10% hydrogen and 90% nitrogen or 8% hydrogen and 92% nitrogen. Chris

Hannu, First and for all I have a problem with your question "tried and trusted" for the simple reason that you are going to change too lead-free. Ultrasonic soldering or welding is not new, as far as I know it is only used applying the ultrasonic

I was afraid so. Hand soldering wires in general is not difficult, but with your constraint of the space restriction it does make fairly hard to do. I am assuming you have a 2 sided board and stranded copper wire. So once solder starts to flow, th

Dear davef, but this LED is skip component, that's a blank footprint and one of its pad is badly wetted...this is the reason for my thinking about contamination. Do you mean different solder paste with more aggressive flux?

Keep in mind that device pitch, pad geometry, lead length and even alloy type will play a roll in your evaluation. I have an assembly that we run 10k pieces per month. One two-pin connector has a pitch of 1.27mm. Unfortunately, the pads are 0.007"

Laser Soldering by nature is a very dialed in process. - Requiring specially formulated flux and solder paste applications that will perform while absorbing a massive amount of energy. What I believe "Gary" is attempting to say is: Laser Soldering c

Frank, Your initial question about temperature profiling is a critical point to a good wave solder process. Especially if you have a No Clean flux. As recommended by many in the thread above, get the Process Data Sheet for your flux (this is not the

It does sound like your leads are to long, speeding it up will reduce volume on lead and most will wick up the joint but when slow excess solder is left as long leads will have little flux left to aid drainage when it leaves the wave, thus giving a s

Choices are: * Return the parts to your supplier for replacement. * Send the parts to a retinning service provider. * Contact your solder paste supplier for recommendations on flux alternatives.

Hi Solderdoctor! Days been great especially as it's nearly over. Don't see many of those machines over here anymore due to healthy competition from local supplier. Only been in industry myself nineteen years so spring chicken I suppose. Mind you sold
