Most likely ground plane stealing your heat. Increase dwell slightly if you can.

When you sat design problem, is it a because there is a ground plane causing a thermal problem?

This may have been asked, but what ESD protection does your facility already have? With proper techniques and equipment, this should be a non-issue. As long as folks aren't using the pcb's to comb through their hair, you don't have to worry about i

My first attempt was similiar to that. It was a straight ground trace running past the circular pads that were recieving the shocks. It was hit and miss when the arcs would occur. When I cut notches in the trace so the ground line had a point next to
