Before "Pb-Free" became an issue we were and still are using Pb-Free component lead finishes- such as on many TSOP, SSOP and QFP packages as well as caps. Components manufacturers changing the lead finish to no-Pb tend to ensure solderability with Sn

This is the dilema during this transition period. Here is a tip: If you see typcial solder joints on a lead free process, but only on one component type....it probably has a significant quantity of lead in it (ex. Sn90/Pb10...and so on) If using T

We don't know dip about your Multitronics 2000 SX, but there may be another angle to take in addition to the Tyco tact that Pete C proposed. The facts may not be precise [someone will hopefully straighten things out], but close enough for your needs

The Multitroniks 2000 series machine was not a Europlacer machine. It was designed and build by Multitroniks as an entry level machine and has a very basic simple design. It has very easy to use software and a very heavy stable platform but quality

Good Morning Everyone, Lately, we have been recieving a growing number of components from manufacturers and distributors with a new moisture level classification. The problem is that we will recieve some with MSD packaging and label and some with ou

Hi Patrick, With all due respect, it is easy to quantify zero. You made a claim that your flux produces ZERO residue. There are several industry-standards (IPC and Military) of determining the cleanliness of post-reflowed circuit assemblies. Th

Hi, I would also be interested in this thread, but our problem has a different twist to it. We have good results from our reflow with Koki no clean paste, however when we pass the boards through the wave solder machine, the flux in that leaves a fog

183C, 60 +- 15 seconds). The quesiton to use a straight ramp or soak profile comes down to the product your are soldering. The key is to get the whole assembly at the same peak temp (minimized delta) and same TAL for effective formation of the so

I recently did a no clean flux eval and by far the leader in the category for remainder (residue) was Interflux 2005MZ 1. You first mission is to provide acceptable solder joints. 2. Only apply what you need to achieve acceptable results. Spray f

I ran into the same problem. What I had is a customer that required us to use a No Clean because of the Low flux activity then they want it cleaned. Well to clean the No clean your going to use such a high percentage of cleaner in your sapinifer th
