Defect : Excessive solder

Process/machine infomation :

 Board type - Double sided

 Solderability protection - OSP

 Flux carrier - Water

 Preheat type - Forced Convection


 Process solutions

  • Conveyor speed too fast.

    a. Dwell time too short.

  • Flux not active enough or solids percentage too low.

  • Solder temperature too low.

  • Not enough flux.

 

Board and design solutions

  • Board/component solderability.

  • Lead length to pad size ratio incorrect.

  • Component layout, orientation.
