Here, the aim of using protective gloves in the SMT assembly area is to keep solder paste from operator hands for safety reasons. And sure, you make a good point, while you're trying to determine the correct material, it's a good idea that these glov

I am having problems with voids in our soldering process. I believe it to be the fact that we use a no clean flux without control on how the boards are handled (gloves, procedures, etc.) Does anyone have suggestions on the appropriate place to start?

Either the gloves or He's not really wearing them. For whatever it is worth, a Dr. as soon as finding out that alcohol or any other drying agent is used for work that will always be the first reason they come up with. It could be something he's doi

Latex sensitivity is HUge. Try changing to vynal gloves. Also keeping the hands moist is a good idea. ESD Hand cream is an option. Just becareful when using the hand cream as it may transfer to boards, stencils, components......
