I find this disturbing when customers dictate your process and equipment? Your responsibility is to deliver a quality product on time. Why would your customer care HOW you achieve this? Hence the success of Chinese manufacturing. I have one custo

Do we really need to follow the IPC J-STD-001 Solder purity? If so, how to effectively balance the chemistry of Sn63/Pb37 other than adding a pure tin on the solder bath? Is this really needed to monitor in monthly basis?How many kgs of pure tin pe

Q1. Do we really need to follow the IPC J-STD-001 Solder purity? A1. Yes, you should control impurities in solder. Further information: * "Allowable concentration of contaminating elements in solder: impurities are harmless unless their level goes to

Hi manchella, After ATC test, two different failure modes can be present: solder FATIGUE (into bulk) or BRITTLE INTERMETALLIC fracture. So, first you have to verify this. Moreover, which brand of SMT paste have you used ? The crack into solder joint

Possible cause can be design related- if the solder land is too small. Check w/ IPC SM-782 Solder Land Design Guide Another is board finish. I have seen problems like this with Gold finished PWBs- which creates a more brittle solder joint.Another pos

Hello all, We have resently run across a solder joint from a through hole part that looks to have a wrinkle effect (star look) from the wave? No pattern it just happens here and there, and some of the joints on the same row look smooth and good. Any
