Hi Jowen,
At the risk of offending the wave soldering fraternity, I have two aims in life. The second is to remove wave soldering from the production process.
My opinion is that reflow soldering gives better quality so I promote double sided reflow where I can . If this involves pin in hole reflow then so be it. The problem is with older designs that have a lot of leaded components so I have to accept wave soldering.
It may be an obvious question, but since the area of these SRAMS is larger than the usual SM components, are you printing/dispensing a larger area of adhesive? Also, when the components become detached, is the fracture surface between the adhesive and the board or between the adhesive and the component. The answer to this may point you in the direction of the cause of the failure.
Regards
Eric Dawson
