Dear Frank, could it be that your component legs are coated with a leadfree finish? This can have an inpact on soldering when your temp.peak in only 220�C and the melting point of pure Tin is 237�C. Best regards, Daniel

It would be uncontrolled reflow process. Solder paste smeared, outdate solder paste, contamination, and many else could lead to this issue. A longer time reflow window would help elimating it (make it max. of 60 seconds liquid time).

Thanks Dave, That answers my question. I didn't think either that the qty of gold in platings would be enough to contaminate the solder pot. I wanted to make sure that leach test is a valid test for gold finishes. Gopinath@mcl.com

Depends on a lot of things as suggested above but we solder land to land spacings of .02" (.5mm) with no shorting. Russ

Hi. I'm new in bussines. I have a DEK screen printer and I have to choise solder paste and flux. It has to be lead-free. What do you recomand? Of course it has to be cheap and good. :)

Your best bet would be to browse through you current solder suppliers catalog and pick your alloy. Most of them have a list of alloys and their melting points as well as what form they can be supplied in.
