We are starting to see issues with using Kester WS R562 with lead free components. The joints look grainy on almost all of the 0402'2 and other small components. Some of the solder does not solder to the terminations. These are hybrid boards which

I received data sheets from a paste distributor in which Amtech gives a recipe how you can mix solder cream. They deliver the flux in plastic jars and the solderpowder in foil packages. You must mix the two components with a simple mixing tool. Has a

I'm not that concerned about the solderability of the motor. Our customer is concerned about the outgassing of the conformal coat effecting the motor brushes. Silicone will break down into SiO2 and SiC will result from a spark between the brushes a

Hello All....we have several hundred PCBs that we need to run with a no-clean solder process and the surface finish is OSP. Our preliminary testing has found that the solder will not wet the entire pad even if the pad is over printed? We have contact

I have noticed on a recent project, the QFN and SOP solder deposits do not seem very uniform and have been leaving little balls, whiskers and icicles of solder paste coming from some pads which leads to bridges. https://imgur.com/a/lqw5RF1 I have u

Hi Scott, Here is another thought. Check your wave solder machine visually. Does the wave flow on both sides of the nozzle? If not, you may have some dross build-up which may be causing your problem. Generally it will only happen on the very fir

| Surprisingly enough, ever since the addition of an omega wave, we solder those often-troublesome SOT23's just fine and dandy.. anyways, long-term, well be getting a universal GDM which uses positive displacement pumps..currently we're using fuji g
