Hi We are in the process of developing a lead free product to be used in a non lead free selective soldering machine, i do have concern in these, and hope you guy can share your experienced expert opinion: 1. What does it take to convert to lead fre

I have done it different ways on different equipment. 1. Remove alloy one from the machine. Add alloy two only. and use it.For next board, do the same. 2. There are machines with separate sections for PB and PC-Free, so pots are away from each other

Who is using two sorts of tin in one selective soldering machine with to solder pots? So then the soldering program selects the correct pot (tin). What are the risks? Adding wrong tin in the wrong pot. Mixing up the nozzles?

We use both in our selective soldering machine. Training is the most important concern. As long as you have well trained operators the risk is minimized.

Thanks for replying... Unfortunately (or not) it isn't relevant anymore. Due to the effects of covid-19 we don't have any active aerospace customers anymore so (for now) we're only making leadfree products.

Yep, done it previously with a multipot machine. Using with wirefeed to top up the pots means you only have a contamintion risk when you fit a new top up reel. Used separate nozzles for both, but theoretically using titanium nozzles would mean no c

Hi everybody, We have wave solder fixtures made of Durapol and multiple wave solder machines. Most likely we�ll use the same pallets for either tin-lead or lead-free solder for a while (of course after washing the pallets). Should we test the palle

We're soon to build a lead free assembly with 0201 components. I'm not worried about placement as our machines can handle it. Any tips on printing, screens, reflow?
