But soon after cleaning and drying with IPA, we find a white residue formation. A: IPA will not nothing to clean your board. The white residue is exactly what you should expect. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for background. >How do we avoid th

While there may not be any specific requirement to cleaning prior to coating, cleaning an assembly prior to coating will only serve to increase the reliability and integrity of the coating. Some residues from low-solids fluxes can interact with conf

Sup G! Normally when spray fluxers get neglected, the spray pattern is the first thing affected. To actually 'see' this, we cut out a piece of cardboard the same size and length of the board. Run it over the fluxer and then turn itover and look at

Selective Soldering Frames can pull large amounts of heat from the solder wave at the point of contact, effectively lowering the temperature of the solder at the solder joint. You should confirm the temperature of the solder joints by running a therm

Hello Ramon, This is a very common problem that usually can be overcome. Can you tell me the flux type you are using (manufacturer, and flux number)? Has your board vendor, or type of PCB's changed (are they entec coated - bare copper)? What is t

Dave, It will all be about the same - changing atmospheres does not affect your heater output. You may experience some differences in the way your solder joints look (a little duller), but with some of the newer pastes out there, you can overcome i
