Hi Jeff, Sean is correct. Although ultrasonic technology will work in post-reflow de-fluxing applications, you will receive concerns regarding ultrasonic �damage� to wire bonded components. Much has been written to combat this belief but the conce

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.

Here are the scenarios: *No-Clean Flux & Foam Fluxer: alcohol is used as a thinner (for titration purposes) if your flux is alcohol-based *No-Clean Flux & Spray Fluxer: alchol is used only as a cleaning agent for your sprayhead.

Hi, I could like to find out what are the things need to look out if I'm doing a new SMT solder paste ( water soluble & no-clean ) evaluation. And also flux ( spray type ) for wave-solder ( water soluble & no-clean ). Appreciate for all the input..

Hi I am using selective soldering to dip soldering the connector pins to the PCB and would like to know your experience: a) Is there a recommended dip or dwell time for the dip soldering? b) How do we improve the solder coverage in the TH? c) How t

Grant, No-Clean paste + IPA = White Residue! #1: Stop using IPA #2: Switch to either a solvent-based de-fluxing chemical or an aqueous-based de-fluxing chemical. If you are using an ultrasonic cleaner for your boards as stated, do not use sapon

Spray or foam? Are you looking for IPA or Water based?
