Hello JB, Based on the double sided assemblies, the misprint cleaning process can demand the cleaning system to remove both raw solder paste from the misprinted side of the board, and, reflowed flux residues from the assembled side. Recognizing and

Rules of thumb :- 1. Never over flux - not necessary and waste's money. Never top flux neither 2. Top Board temp. around 70C - 105C or there about's pending what laminate you use. Obviously the more flux you apply the higher heat required/denser PC

| Does anyone have any recommendations on spray fluxers? Are there major differences between the high priced ultrasonic machines to the low priced flux/air spraying machines? We are going to be spraying an OA flux with 11% solids content. Are there a

Dave, Answers to your questions: * From your pictures, the white residue appears to be only on the solder mask. Is that correct? If not, what is the location [eg, solder, nonsolder/nonmask areas] of the residue that doesn't show well in the pictur

Cartman: Ah, another "hidden cost" of no-clean. I love no-clean people they're putting themselves out-of-business and they don't even realize it, but at least they're saving money. Enough pontificating, "yes" to all of the above. 1 Yes, no-cleans

Scott - all sounds good. My primary concern is the residual flux left behind under the BGA. Will moisture entrapment become a concern over time? I believe that may be dependent on the flux formulation. I know that some no clean fluxes actually become

"-How do these lint-free rags remove the flux that seeps under components = no matter its a no-clean material and we are removing for esthestics only." Don't think so ... Let's be clear. Low residue fluxes are benign only if: * Applied in amounts ac

Ryan, Please consider the following: There is no such thing as no residue flux. Low or no solids flux contain "wetting" agents to help the stuff stick upside down! Try painting your ceiling with less than 2% solids paint!! With all this excess liquid

Good post WML! you helped a lot!, Chunks brings up good point. Are there vias that can be shorted by this component being slightly misaligned? When reworking there could be residual solder or even flux that has shorted the pads or component, etc.
