I know this is not SMT related but would anyone care to comment on Alpha 856 flux, good/bad experiences or any known issues? I did some samples recently using it and had excellent results. Information on it seems a little hard to find and it makes

We have a bunch of used solder paste we need removed from our facility. Who provides this type of service for a fair reasonable fee? We are in Austin, Texas and use loctite solder paste. Our supplier is Hisco, but they only provide this service for A

This is sort of interesting. We had a clock problem with Alpha OM-338 lead free paste. The flux residue was causing a clock problem and the clock was only a few KHz. We went back ot OM-5100 lead paste and the problem never occurred again. Chris

Looking for some opinions on what the best, readily available, Alpha lead free water sol paste is out there. Only thing I can see on their website is the WS-819. Anyone with experience with this? We currently are using the OM-338 NC which works great

The board may look the same, but there could be some differences not readily visible. Fix the other board and put it back in. Then rerun your process. If you still need help you should contact Don Burshnick at Alpha 1 Technologies. That guy is the V

Donnie, It's funny you ask this question. I just last month was at a company doing exactly what you are asking (Alpha 310 flux with infrared heating). They were successful, but they had 2 important things going for them. 1) A spray fluxer that wa

| I am looking into Alpha's system, and would appreciate some feedback from anybody using it currently. I am concerned about about the life expectancy of the foils if they are clamped and unclamped every couple of days, and what happens if one of the

Ok folk's has anyone used Alpha Metal's UP78 solder paste ? Our place is looking to move to that as the way to go, getting rid of the Hereaus 362's and Alpha 737's of the current set up. My question's are really : how is the printability of the pas
