Well first off I wouldn't evaluate paste for a wave process. I would use solder bar instead. Flux - top side fillets and no shorting on the solder side, does it clean well after processing if using water soluble flux. How wide is the process win

If that's the case, let your customer go. I have run into this situation recently. Q. Why do you not run a dedicated line for lead free? A. You (the customer) give less than 12 weeks forcast and expect us to have a dedicated line for your product?

Thinner: Flux thinner, NOT paint thinner We kept a spare stone in thinner in inventory. We cut PVC pipe to size, cap in one end, screw thread on the other, stone inside, filled with flux thinner and covered with a screw cap. I don't remember who we

I am not going to give you any names of equipment manufacturers as I believe most people tend to recommend only what they are familiar with. I have my favorites as, likely, most everyone else does as well. What I will tell you is equally important.

We recently got a batch wash machine that can use a chemical cleaner. (not a saponifier). NOW I feel confident cleaning no clean boards. Without a machine that can heat water and use a proper cleaning agent, I would not trust cleaning no clean boards

Please give us more information about the source of the solder that you mention. Is it: * HASL applied by your supplier * Solder on pads after wave soldering * Solder paste after printing * Solder on pads after reflow soldering ... or what?

Just 2 cents, lead free flux residue is no clean?, how about leaded flux? how much flux residue it leaves on both types? is there a clean up procedure after wave solder? or is there a wave solder process?

Hi, We have been running Soltec reflow and wave, and are very happy with them. The software on the Soltec oven is great, but a bit stupid on the wave. However they are both great units, and after about 38,000 PCB's they are still totally clean with
