| Netters, | | When I reflow a PCB there is a discoloration of silkscreen and mask. It appears if Profile is too hot! But I dont think so, maybe I'm wrong? | | 1. Kester 293 no clean | 2. 2.1 C/s for 30s to 150 C | 3. .5 - .7 C/s for 60s to 185

We've all been soldering Pb free parts for a couple decades. All your surface mount capacitors have probably had a Sn finish for years. Whenever one of our parts with a SnPb finish converts for Pb free we have the manufacturing site do a small buil

I like what you're doing. 20 years ago anyone, hobbyists and tiny garage-shop companies could create electronics devices just as sophisticated and cool as big corporations. Today, SMT has largely trashed the creativity (and competition) that existe

With recent implementation of VOC-Free flux in our shop, we've experienced little solder fines/balls on the above combo of VOC-Free, Water Based, and glossy to semi-glossy mask finish on PCB's. The solder balls show up on close conductor spacings, ~

Sounds like a true IR guy to me!!! Your profile should reflow solder on the board properly to produce a reliable product for your customer. If that requires more than one proifile, so be it!!!. That being said, we went from hundreds of IR profiles

We have a customer that has been trying to place the Xilinx part number XCV2000E-6FG1156I which is an 1156 ball plastic BGA. When we do the X-ray and inspection we find that the package is warping up on all four corners of the package, Like so: Top

We just bought a new Heller 1800 EXL reflow oven for reflowing SMT boards. We us a low temp RMA solder paste with 2% silver. Everything we build is to IPC Class 3 specifications. We have approximately 600 different types of circuit boards we build

With poorly cured mask: * Wave soldering: Expect to see thin wavy band of dross imbedded in the mask in the wave solder side. * Reflow soldering: Expect to see a pinto board where the two tones of mask are [1] normal color and [2] a lighter color, al

I have mount the 8 pcs SEVEN SEGMENT LEDS on the PWB side at SMT Process, after reflow the board test at customer side and facing some issues which is missing segment and also one segment founded dimmers compare to other segment. Data sheet of LEDs
