Hi Dave - You are correct that I was not clear in my comments. I assumed Joris had seen the usual solder balls accompanying his blowholes. Nevertheless, Joris, my first two recommendations still stand. Increasing the dwell time of your leads in t

I agree with RealChunks. The application of any of these "wave solder process control tools" is dependant on how the shop is run. At some shops, PM is inconsistent and slacked off on. At other shops, there is no technical expertise at the operator

Hi, I'm an SMT refugee working in component manufacture - hey, times are hard! I've been asked by a customer to test some of my parts at high temperature on the wave - up to 360 deg Celsius. I've checked my wave and it's only capable of getting up

I have the identical machine and setup as you with the same issue(s). I looked at setting up for N2 but am choosing to retrofit to a standard lambda nozzle setup. If you are soldering bottom side SMT parts or other challenging assemblies, N2 may ma

Square-leaded pin headers will typically bridge at the trailing edge (last couple of leads), since during peel-back, the solder at the trailing edge has "nowhere to go". If you have control over designs, ask your designers if they can put solder thi

We dont have the debridging knife. I had one on an old Hollis machine I had once. It was totally worthless. I am setting up the nitrogen today. I will let you know how its goes. We are using a water based no-clean. The nitrogen will probably make a

The standard machine is set from the factory at 7-9 degrees, 7 is the most standard, why are you considering the change? before doing any thing to the machine, first identify why? what type of defects are you seeing? I have found, depending on the t

Lots of answers, but none to the question you asked. I don't know of any ppm standards, none would be a good place to start. If you have a particular re-occuring problem with a specific connector or location, e-mail me. bill@ietechnology.net Is t
