A water soluble solder paste (AIM WS483), reflow and wash. We are considering using AIM NC254 No-clean solder paste to eliminate the wash step.

Wire wheel works too. Pre tin the part. Hand solder after reflow. Or order good parts. I prefer the last one. Hows that for an answer?

Why don't you just reflow them right after you populate? Then you'll quit losing parts because someone bumped a board after the paste lost its tack.

Main reason is the oven is 38kW and reflows a day's worth of production in 90 minutes. If it ran all day this place would be a sauna. That and the cost of electricity. Mariss

We don't associate solder balls with no-clean flux and humidity. For solder balls with no-clean flux, we'd rather have you thinking about: * Paste selection * Aperature size * Paste print process * Reflow recipe

Do your boards only have three parts on them? Otherwise, i dont see how this is possible. Do you scrap the board if there is an issue or do you fix it and make it look like reflow soldering?

During reflow soldering, sometimes via fill with solder leaving the solder connection starved. Questions are: * Specifically, what is the problem you see? * Do the defective pads show that solder has melted in a uniform fashion? * How do the tempera

solder ball was caused by hasl process not reflow. seen before many times, look around wells of smt on bare boards should be more of them
