The Role of Soldering Flux in SMT Processing

     In the process of SMT welding processing, soldering flux is often used, so what is the effect of using soldering flux?

 

 

 

1. Remove oxide

The Abietic Acid in the soldering flux can have a reduction reaction with the oxide film on the surface of the welded metal to generate Copper Abietate, which can remove oxides or other dirt on the soldering surface.

 

 

2. Prevent secondary oxidation

During SMT welding processing, the soldering flux will cover the surface of the welded metal and solder, which can isolate it from the air and prevent the secondary oxidation of the solder.

 

 

3. Reduce solder tension

When the soldering flux removes the oxide on the soldering surface, a certain chemical reaction occurs, which can reduce the surface tension and viscosity of the solder, while increasing the surface activity, thereby improving the wettability of the solder.

 

 

4. Better heat transfer

The soldering flux reduces the surface tension and viscosity of the solder, and also increases the fluidity of the liquid solder, which is conducive to the rapid and effective transfer of heat to the soldering area.

 

 

5. Protect soldering materials

In the process of SMT processing and welding, the original surface protective layer of the welded material will be destroyed. A good soldering flux can quickly recover to protect the welding materials after welding.

 

 

In summary , it is very important to use soldering flux in the process of SMT soldering.

What are the Advantages and Disadvantages of the OSP Technology

图片
     With the continuous development of the electronics industry, there are more and more PCB surface treatment technologies, and each technology has its own merits. OSP is a commonly used surface treatment technology process, what are its advantages and disadvantages?       Compared with other surface treatment technologies, OSP is somewhat different.  It uses a chemical method to produce an organic film on the clean bare copper surface, which acts as a barrier between the copper and the air.   OSP is organic, not  metallic,   and its cost is lower than most surface treatment technologies.     Advantages: With this organic film, it can resist the attack of moisture in the air without being oxidized before welding,  can withstand the test of high temperature, maintain good activity, and has a good tinning ability.  This layer of organic film will not cause damage to the sheet material. It can be easily removed by the solder resist during soldering. It can solder the copper wire and the

What PCBA Problems Can AOI Inspect

图片
        With the development of science and technology, the volume of PCBA is getting smaller and more precise, and some defects in processing cannot be distinguished with the naked eye, so AOI has appeared.  So what PCBA problems can AOI inspect?   The working principle of AOI is to first collect and input parameters such as images, component positions, solder joints and other parameters of the good-quality board.   During the inspection, the instrument automatically scans the circuit board and automatically captures the image, and then compares the collected data with the pre-entered parameters to determine whether the characteristics of solder joints, components and other aspects are consistent. If the data is inconsistent, the d efect  will be flagged through the display for maintenance personnel to repair.     AOI is mainly used to inspect solder paste printing, component placement and soldering. For example: too much or too little solder paste,   solder paste printing offset;  co

  SHENZHEN HOYOGO ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. specializes in providing overall PCBA electronics manufacturing services, and can also provide customers with a full range of value-added services: including SMT assembly, PCB program development, schematic design, PCB layout and routing, Bom list matching, component procurement and other services. Do you know the role of shield cover in PCB design? What is a Shield Cover? The shield cover is an alloy metal cover, which is a vital component to reduce the radiation of the display. It is used in MID or VR products, which can effectively reduce the mutual interference between modules. It is common in the isolation between the main control function module and the power module and the Wifi module. The  P urpose of  S hield  Cover   C lip Generally, there are products that use wireless communication, and shield frames are usually designed on the circuit board to isolate electromagnetic interference (EMI). However, to make the shield frame fun
