Andrew, we need a lot more information to help. 1. what is the open caused from? bemt pins, non-wetting, board bowing, or no paste deposited. 2. What is your current stencil design? 3. What does this connector look like and what are the pins? Rus

The connector is so long, and has big metal parts, it will be little deformed during reflow I guess, andthe pins planarity should be critical for 200 pins. Did you measure the non wetting pins profile to see if temperature ok? And maybe you can try u

Randy's correct. If you were soldering to nickel with WS609, you would be complaining about non-wetting, not lumpy solder flow.

did you try using double header connector pin of a different lot? Indy

Hi, I am having some PTH non wetting issues. Setup and chronology of events is explained: Set Up; Part: 1 MM pitch connector 378 pins Solder: Kester Ultra Pure 63/37 solder Pot; 250 C pre heat; Peak 94C top side Flux: Qualitek 775, Fluxer: foam T

Hi SMT Engr With a double-header connector do you mean Double Level Right Angled Header Connector. If so there is a big difference in heat sinking capacity between the two rows, as where the pins of the top connector absorbes twice as much heat as t

It is the solder ball that's usually encountered in a reflow process. It's just that, the paste did not wet well along the connector pins. Before reflow, the paste is actually at the tip of the connector, and stayed there and never went up to fill th

We process a double-side reflow board (10 ups). Chips and IC's on the bottom side while chips, IC's plus thru-hole connectors and IC sockets on top side (bottom side first then top side reflow). In the past, we were not encountering any soldering pro

I've tried a different lot of the same double header connector (yes its double level right angled header conector) twice but nothing has improved. I've also suspected that top row of the connector has greater heat sinking capacity (which should hold

What is the determination of poor soldering fails pull test, non-wetting, visual)? I have never heard of an SMT component that has leads higher than the body of the component. Refer to IPC 782 3.6.1.7 it provide the guidelines for SMT standoff heig
