Hi Paul, not to throw a wrench in here but I beleive that paople are talking about switching from SAC in wave to SN100C, NOT SACx, these are different. and should not be confused. SACx is supposed to fall somewhere in the middle of the SN100C and t

On 0402s we use 20x25 mil pads with a 15 mil gap between the pads on the pcb with ENIG finish, 5 mil stencil with a 1:1 aperture (20x25 mil) and SAC305 lead free solder paste. We very rarely see any tombstoning on 0402s using this setup.

SAC coated leads on certain components require more dwell time. If you find that you have top-side wetting issues, slow the conveyor down a bit or increase your wave height, or, a combination of the 2.

SAC305 - it's just a metal composition of solder paste. All properties of solder paste depend on chemical composition of flux and other components - I don't know their names in English, sorry.

Hi, We have problems with our wave soldering process. The problem is that during the same assembly, after wave soldering, some pcb’s look not clean and other pcb’s look good. We use lead free SAC305 solder and flammable flux. We think our proces

Use the Kester solder paste EM828 SAC305. Guarantee good reflow. Peak@250 Reflow@80s Soak@75s.

I have had Selective issues such as yours on two very different Selective Solder Machines. I was able to eliminate these issues by using Alpha EF-9301 wave flux with any SAC305 solder. It's a more aggressive flux, but really made the difference. Anot

The most prevailent wave solder machine in small to medium UK companies is the Blundell CMS400 - every man and his dog has one. And the recommended lead free solder for these machines is..... Greg's 0.3% Silver. Quite a few of our customers use h

Of course it is needless to say the performance of SACX0307 is worse than SAC305, and also to some other lead free solders,eg SN100C & SCS7.

Hello, tried searching the SMTnet archives, but not yet a clear answer - maybe there is not a one yet ? ;) last discussion I found is few years old so maybe there is a fresh view on that? Q: we want to prove that our proces is "clean" we use SAC30
