Just reading these comments are really interesting but very baffling. That if the solder manufacturers produces solder which 'is' actually Virgin high quality material and treated with conventional metallic anti drossing agents AND continue to add th

JD There are many lead free wave machines out in the market today. They promised to give best result for lead free. Companies here in our country who bought lead free wave machines 3 years ago is now having difficulties in controlling there machines

I am looking for data / info on how flux may contaminate the solder in a Wave. I have a customer who requires a no clean process. Our wave is equipped with 2 separate fluxing systems and I would like to use OA in one and the No Clean in the other. Th

Daniel, what type of wave set up do you have ?, are you rnning a chip wave and what are your preheat's / fluxes that your using. One thing I was wondering is at what angle your running onto the wave, perhap's you PGA is shadowing your components in

Hi all, We got a customer wanted us to run a PCB which is (Rigid+Flex), to be specific its looks like [T], T's leg is Flex and Top is Rigid. We have 8 TH parts and wanted to run PCBs through wave, but without damaging Flex and also we don't want to

Your point about thermosets getting soft in the preheater of the wave is well taken. But an adhesive that is used past its expiry or other up-front lack of process control represent 99 & 44/100 percent of the reason for �glued parts falling off in

We ran doublesided SMT thru Glue and Wave process before and but faced a lot of skip solder. Then the customer told us that they have similar problem when they ran the board so what they did was they print the paste-dispense the glue- place the comp

Hi Rem Woo, ur board is such long one,7'. Our PCB is only 2' long but 3.5kg weight b4 solder. We use wave machine to solder it and PCB was sit on the pallet. all PCB side lengths are pressed by clamps. PCB was flat just after wave, however there was

When you say all over the board, please give more detail. Where are they located? [All over wave soldered portion, laminate only, solder mask only, solder only, specific components only, etc] When you say white residue, what color are they really?

Wow, I should apply! As others state, wave solder engineers are a dying breed - believe me, I've been doing it for over 15 years. Often times, a very THANKLESS job. People who've never "dealt" with wave think that it's "easy"...c'mon a board trave
