Take a few parts from the reel and look close at the parts to make sure the bottom surface of the leads is below the bottom surface of the body.

We are Currently running a Board and it seems that the SOT-223's on the bottom side have flux and water trapped under the part. Nothing has changed in our process and this is the only board that it is happening on. We are using Kester R562 water wa

This problem exists at a very low level but happens on all our discrete components, all our products and in two plants. Between the PCB land and the component termination there is a barrier of flux residue, this actually lifts the component slightly

physically lift board of after fluxing to visually see what is covered, or using thermal fax paper to get to see coverage works well. PROPER low residue or no residue fluxes leave benign insulating residue behind not corrosive.

Hello everybody, I had not noticed until yesterday this situation. Whenever the wave operator has a problem with a PCB (i.e. lifted parts, misprayed flux, etc.) they wave solder the PCB again "to fix it". The problem is that PCBs do not look pretty

Rework is typically done by heating the BGA to 170-180C to first scrape off the fillet. Then, heat to above reflow, and lift the BGA. Then, collapse the solder with heat and flux. Then, back down at 170-180C, scrape off the underfill from the boar

Three methods, all work, all require generous use of flux. 1.) Use a heated, electrical desoldering tool with flux. Just be sure that you select a forgiving desoldering tip with a rounded tip end to it so that you do not scratch the pad. Advantage:

The Technical Services Group at Alpha Metals has spent a fair amount of time looking at wave soldered Pb-free connections. We too have observed fillet tearing, fillet lifting, and pad lifting. I have concluded that without major changes in the mate
