I am looking for some tips of the trade with solder charges.

I am using recommended reflow profile in the oven and I am seeing insufficient fill per IPC, and sometimes insufficient end joint.

I have tried dipping them in flux also.

What are you all doing to combat these things?

Is this just something inherent to this component?

To resolve this issue, we use stencils with a step in the location of component with the solder charges.

For which connectors? We are using a Andon BGA connector and are having a few issues with solderability and occasionaly bow / warp?
