Hi all, We run an old Seho 1135C wave solder with a 63/37 pot at 250°C. It has been running well for a couple of years but we have noticed lately that all of the larger pads (terminal blocks, transformers, etc.) require additional solder to be appli

Hello Jason, I will look for the best price and service support to start. Also request an in house trial at the vendor. Jason, are you looking to remove a no clean paste or water soluble paste? Single Chamber Equipment: Most stencil cleaners opera

There is no IPC specification, nor should there be. * There are just too many peculiarities in the design and fabrication of PWB. * The issue is not defining how to store boards. The issue setting expectation for reliable products and allowing you th

We produce several boards with reflowed components on top and bottom. We are finding the solder has wetted to the leads but did not flow completely to the end of the lands. Several factors/causes?: 1) Board warping but paste deposits look good. 2) Mo

We are a high mix/low volume shop (avg. lot size is about 60). Hand solder was a bottleneck, so we looked into selective machines. We purchased a Vitronics-Soltec mySelective and are very happy with it so far. Although it has a large footprint, ev

Back in the mid 90s I used an SVS 3D solder paste inspection system. We used it as a stand along unit but it was an inline model. We would bring printed PCBs off the Dek 265 solder printers and check every 5 or 10 printed panels. They almost alway

We have evaluated vapour phase in the past and was very impressed on how simple and easy it was to use and control. Gods send when being pushed in an audit because so little can be changed and will work within the chemistry within the unit. I so want

Hi Evtimov 'hege gave you a plausible explanation for what's going on with solder running-up the lead of your components: TOO MUCH METAL!!! I've got different one. This explanation goes along the way that you're thinking, but just opposite. The rea
