Hi, I think you should be ok, as the contamination in a reflow oven is generally flux from what I have seen. I have never heard to the solder metals itself being inside the oven apart from some paste in hole we did that sometimes dropped a bit of so

Hi, I guess if your innovative and out-of-the-box thinking is not appreciated by the group here, then perhaps it's time to consider it's actually just arrogant, and stupid thinking. Then I guess it would not be out-of-the-box to consider that your w

Hi, Yeah, a google search of Bahodium returns nothing at all, but Guru added a TM, so it's trade marked? It's not the waste of space that's interesting with his posts, as they are a little entertaining, but I am worried someone's going to listen t

Hi, That's good news, and we did outs with SN100C as well on Wed, however we are still working hard on getting a good profile. We have some large BNC connectors, and they are hard to profile. We also have wave palettes, and these might be too thick

Hi, How come so many good threads get off track because of this Guru fool. To get back on track, we have been running SN100C in our pot for a few weeks now, and it's incredible, and working really well. Glad I listened to the advise of people on th

Grant, I beleive your problem may lie in the top side heater. Only 60% seems too little. I need to run my Soltec way past 60% to get top side wetting on larger part. You may want to have someone fix that. Perhaps Dr. Bocephus H good time budwies

Hi, Thanks, and we are doing that today. After spending the day playing with all the usual things that used to work, we are focusing today on profiling and data to get things right. The only worry I have is did we get a wave that can handle this, a

Hi Grant, just my opinion, I think the concern could be related to the extra temperature the BGAs have been exposed during the Lead Free Reflow Temperature. So you need to check ( data sheet) what is the max temperature and how long the Pb/BGA can w

Hi, Reliability was what I was worried about. We have not shipped these yet, as we are not sure about reliability. We can ship them in regions outside of the EU anytime so we are ok on that, and because of supply chain delays, we are already shippi

Hi, That's a really interesting article, however one thing I am a little confused on. They seem to say a Pb-Pb solder joint is almost as bad as a Pb-lead free joint in their results. Are they saying the testing which looks like it cycles up to 125 D
