For reflow, bump up your profile as hot as you can go as allowed by your paste manufacturer will allow. If you can change solder paste without too much red tape, several solder paste manufacturers make a transitional paste designed for mix of lead a

Waving the board will sweap away the crud of black pad and to produce a solderable surface, but this surface may have too much solder and may not be very flat. This can create problems when printing paste and placing and soldering components, depend

We use a washer soluable solder flux for our solder wave. We then wash the boards in a dishwasher. We have done it this way for years without problems. We just got a new dishwasher and now we get residue on the solder (white marks) Anyone know of wh

We noticed unsufficient soldering on some 0805 chips located between pins from a plastic bloc connector . All chips are soldered with 45� angle. Flux quantity , preheating , contact time and PCB quality was checked. Do you know any international stan

No, raising the solder pot temperature to 800*F will not affect affect your solder alloy. We expect that you had a fairly high level of intermetallic compound generation, but most of that would be included in the fairly high dross generation that ha

We are having problems with a specific lot of boards wave soldering. I need a way to prove the boards are bad, does anyone know a way to verify the amount of OSP coating on a board, or a company I can get to do it for me? I am using PBfree solder of

Thanks , Have you a table more complet than the Table 7-2 or a formule to calculate with a precise humidity value ? because for me it's important to know if is necessary to solder the component on the PWB with a wave solder process 8 hours before t

I think the BLT solder joints look very shiny for no-lead. We are getting very good top side solder with ours though. They look like this. - Gold Enig plating - Alpha EF-6100 Flux - SAC305 - Preheat topside temperatures at 110 to 120C

Hi Radek, Thanks for your reply. I use this flux with manual soldering process for the product. Is this flux suitable for manual soldering? or it is only for wave soldering? I have sent the board for analysis, and the report shown that the white res

This is probably a weird question. I have taken the chip wave out of my solder pot and was wondering if it is possible to put something in its place to take up the void and at the same time reduce the volume of solder? I noticed it takes longer to he
