Wave flux, although I've seen it used successfully in my past life, is not such a good idea to use as a rework/touchup flux. Wave flux needs to be heated to certain activation temps which won't be repeatedly achieved with a manual soldering process.

More information would be helpful. For instance: * Talk about the distribution of the problem, including a single lot or from various lots and over components and component types on the board * Tell us about the board (ie, thickness, type, solder ma

I presume you have a local flux spray with your selective solder machine (I have no idea what you use). If I have a group of leads in close proximity like this, I would be trying to design a well and nozzle setup that I can use to solder all the joi

| We are facing a problem of high contamination on boards after wave soldering. We want the contamination to be under 24 ugm/inch square. We are using a no clean flux with the spray fluxer unit of wave soldering. The contamination is higher on the e

Are you talking about bare board cleanliness or assembly level cleanliness? Bare board cleanliness is still primarily measured by resistivity of solvent extract (ROSE) using instruments such as Omegameters and Zero Ions. What is considered as "acce

| We intend to use VOC free fluxe in our nytro machine. Does anybody know if there can be problems with water ie. solvent residues in the tunnel. Perhaps there are some white papers available on that issue. | | | | | Dear Raeto, In my experienc

Hi �Pb-Head� I agree with everything you say, except for your statement that alcohol based fluxes perform poorly with convection heat. The fluxes you tried might have performed poorly, but that doesn�t mean that all alcohol based fluxes perform poor

First of all, my Customers can be described as a real "Jack-Ass" or at least the SQE does. They don't treat us as their partners OR more like "do what I said...When I started to use solder paste you probably weren't borned yet and/or probably still o

| | Hey all! | | The wave solder warrior is back. I have found a flux which leave almost no residue (the least yet), but because of its super low solids content I absolutely cannot get topside fillets. The multi-layer, two sided board is on a
