The leads on the FPC are pre-tinned on both sides with SAC305. The receiving leads are AU. We coat all surfaces with Kester 979 no-clean flux dispensed via pen prior to initiating the hotbar cycle.

Actually, the white res were caused by the water carrier in your Lonco 23F reacting with the res from the nc flux used to solder the component in place. Comments are: * Some nc flux res are cleanable, some are not. Your supplier [Alpha?] can probab

Wave flux, although I've seen it used successfully in my past life, is not such a good idea to use as a rework/touchup flux. Wave flux needs to be heated to certain activation temps which won't be repeatedly achieved with a manual soldering process.

Ashok: A fine mess you gotten us into now!!! ;-) You have no good options. BEST OPTION: Get the customer to accept the boards "as is." Rework will only degrade the product. Agree to accept all liability related to this solder condition (which y

Hey, We have introduced a Cleaning Pen from Chemtronics. It removes excess flux after touch up.. This way the operator doesn't have to go everytime to the cleaning room.. Indy

Hello, Could be that touchup operators are using too much flux. What are you dispensing flux with. Disposable or refillable flux pens are good to have around. | | | | hello to everybody, | | | | we have a really satisfactory no clean proc

We might need to open up the term "mass production" here, but I will give it a try anyway. I've seen semiconductor packaging companies in the far east where they pick up balls with a vacuum head, consisting of holes matching the pattern of the BGA p

Consider using a roll solder with a flux that well matches the residues you can accept to be remaining on the board when you get finished processing. Many people use a no-clean flux cored roll solder for such operations, because they don't want to c

You don't say what kind of machine you are using but several just use the edge of fiducials to determine area (and centers). If you are teaching in binary and have the ability to select a decision level (threshold), use a level half way between loss
