DO NOT Mix Technologies.... If you are using a no clean solder paste use a no clean wave solder process. I have direct experience with using a no clean paste and a RA water-soluble wave solder process. When cleaning with the water wash system your

Hi all, Sorry for the late reply..I am sure it is flux residue..Found no such symptom as Grey mention above. This is non clean process and no way we can clean this whole big board(Server) with any kind of flux removal...Currently, the ICT probe pre

Hello everybody, We are running a product through wave solder process using three different PCB suppliers. I have noticed that you can see more flux residues (water-based, No-clean flux) on one supplier than on the other two. All three PCBs run unde

if two boards with different solder masks give different results on flux residue level after soldering with the exact same machine settings than it is clear that one of the solder masks is not compatible with your no-clean flux. could be the solder m

Depending on the system you can program in a loop where if the board fails a contact to cycle the vacuum once or twice. it wears on the pins a little faster since you cycle 2 times (maybe more) per board but it could help increase the FPY. I know Gen

Is there anyone out there required by their customer to clean the finget tab contacts even after using noclean paste? We have been asked to clean even though we don't have any flux residue on the contacts. Any ideas? Mike

Good morning, What is considered "high frequency" ,.i.e. Mhz,GHz,etc., when we talk about possible issues with NO-clean flux residues and product's application? I appreciate your help on this... Have a good one! George

Questions are: * What are the soldermasks used by your three board suppliers? * What tests have you run to assess the compatibility between these three soldermasks and your flux?

Excess low residue flux is very dangerous to leave on your finished assembly, because it can: * Be corrosive to your solder connections * Promote dendrite growth. To prevent this, follow your supplier's recommendations on: * Applying the proper amou

Acetone is likely not compatible with several component types, the evaporation charactoristics are desirable. IPA is more compatible, though, may not solubilize the residues. Austin American Technology developed MegaSolv JB and MegaSolv NOC for the
