| I need some pics or documentation on how a finish soldered joint looks like for SMT component. I have various people who supposedly says has knowledge with High Temp says my joint could look better. The joint looks shiny and great except for a grai

| | | | We are wave soldering some fabs with a lot of unmasked trace area along the edges. The trace area is solid copper covered with tin / lead, no masking, no components along the edges, same on solder side and component side (goofy board design)

I made my own wave measuring device using KIC2000 system. KIC2000 has automatic wave detection, so now I have a profiler for both reflow ovens and wave solder. The delmat carrier only cost $500. A guy, Samir, from this forum gave me the idea, actu

Hi, What are your thoughts about the article saying that the lead will leach out of the solder joint to the last place to cool, creating a weak point? I have two worries about the report. First, is that we have always used tin lead solder, and le

Hi Ive checked into this a bit more, there are two coatings im told you can get one is a teflon coating that you paint on then bake, the other is a red oxide (lead free) paint. Also if your using solder pots and they are close grain cast iron they a

Hello I have the problem with selective soldering on the robot. Thin balls appear on the laminate. The tin sometimes shoots...? and then the balls are a few millimeters from the soldering point. I tried up or down with temperature, but it did not wor

How thick is this pallet? 6mm, 8mm, 10mm? I would look at: Make sure you're pot height is correct (lead clearance). If you are burrying the pallet in the fountain, your going to "push" a large volume away. The solder "push" should not plow over t

There are coatings available for Stainless that will greatly retard the solder from wetting to/eating the metal. This may be a cheaper route to go than Using all Titanium. The coating is melonite QPQ (quench-polish-quench)I really don't have any mo

| We are looking at reflow soldering some Flexi-rigid | pcbs. I have heard that IR reflow soldering can make the Polyimide "self heat" and cause de-lamination. | Does anyone have any info. The thermal problems associated with polyimide rigid/flex de

| | | We are currently using a 65/35 solder for our wave process but are considering switching to a 63/37 for a substantial cost savings. No one here seems to know why we everused a 65/35 formulation in the first place. | | | I understand 63/37 to be
