Hi Rick,
I would suggest you check out Appendix B of IPC-D-279, Design Guidelines for
Reliable Surface Mount Technology Printed Board Assemblies. What you have is
innerlayer separation (ILS) of which post separation is a subset. In all
likelihood, the affected layers are 2, 3, N-1, and N-2. The failures are
caused by a combination of land rotation and hydrostatic pressures on the
PTH/PTV barrel during the resin thermal expansion during soldering processes.
Depending on where the separations occur you need to check your wet processing
(Failure modes: foil/e-less Cu interface & e-less Cu/electrolytic Cu
interface) or use a better grade of copper foil (Failure mode: Foil cracking).
In any case, also chech maximum temperatures during soldering processes,
especially manual ones.
