| Dear Al, | Are these reworked, double-sided boards? | | If you attempt to clean side #2 of double-sided misprint in a "spray" type cleaner, millions of solder balls can be broadcast throughout the same chamber as the populated side #1. Or, if thi

Are there anyone who can give me the answer about solder ball problem? We have 12 layer PCB and double sided PCB. After one side reflow soldering We found lots of solder ball under the PCB. The solder ball was coming out from via hole. So when w

:On a dense board, a great way to reduce solderballing is to either; print paste 1:1 with pad size using a 5mil foil, reduce aperture openings by 10% of pad size or change aperture shape to "Home Plate" design. If none of these work on their own you

Hi, I experience some trouble with my solder joint recently. And I'm wondering if someone could help me with this. First I use a thermocouple wich I must tape to the board to profile my temperature. I want to buy the Temprobe from Saunder Tech

Solder balls can be removed with most cleaning systems, batch or inline. Ultrasonic will work but may also cause other problems. A high pressure spray-in-air cleaning system with a chemical additive (for no-clean removal) will work best. If you no

I agree with the others and experienced the problem myself this week. Solderballs at the side of the chips. I looked at the board and found that the chip is pressing the paste away too much. This in combination with our quite big pads(and stencilaper

Lets make it easy on the poor guy, some are correct, check you profile but remember one thing most do not apply, it is important to match the type of paste you are using with the style of oven and configuration. send a direct email and I will give so

Concerning the solder-balls, there are a few causes for this. Try to slow down your solder-speed (P.e 80cm/min). Can you measure temperature after the pre-heat zone? Are there also blow-holes in the joints? Personally I think there is some water in t

We use water soluble solder paste. When it gets a little dried out, can we add something to rejuvenate it? Liquid flux? We do not place components, just print and reflow the solderpaste so solderballs, spattering, and other issues like those are of
