Istvan, The advise from both Roni and Mike sounds right on the money. The problem is most likely that your PCB is not completely dry (the flux has not completely evaporated) in the area where these solder balls occur. You have a number of differen

Hello Guys; I "ll like to add some comment on Mr John message , see below.. "Be sure that the components to be used on the bottom can take the maximum heat of the wave and the delta T of entering the wave."-John The required preheat temp , that i

Steve , I use a general set of guidlines when developing reflow profiles: Ramp rate to 140 deg C - 50-60 seconds Time at preheat (140-160 deg C) - 90-120 sec Time above liquidous (183 deg C) - 45-90 sec Time at peak (215-225 deg C) - 9-12 sec peak t

The other answers on this thread are realistic but it also depends: a) on the quality and finish of the components and PCB (including, of course, solderability) b) the flux type (I would expect lower defect rates with water-soluble than with the less

Charles: Here are a few possibilities you might want to check: 1) Conveyor width -- if the conveyor is too tight this will cause the boards to buckle as they go through the preheat section. We recently had this happen when we changed operators. 2
