| I am having problems processing immersion gold boards. The achieved solder joints appear acceptable a la IPC-A-610, but the resultant joint does not fully cover the land, i.e. you can still see an outline of gold pad. | What is the best way to achi

Dear fellow process engineers, Some solder joints "trough hole component" have cracked. I suspect that in the market some technician tryed to straighten some components (LED) and has applied enough force to actually brake the joint. The joints were

We have been encountering diminishing ball shear readings these past few weeks, despite the fact that we did not change any ball shear tester parameter. Our reflow parameters are also within spec limits. ( 210-220 deg C max temp. and 40-60 sec dwell
