John,

We're using an OA flux, followed by a wash in a high pressure in-line
cleaner. Using OA takes care of minor oxidation problems, which you may
encounter in you low volume, high mix, environment.

We were using a synthetic rosin version previously. We like the OA results
much better.

Good luck,

Charlie B.

All,

What fluxes are you all using in your wave soldering machines? Are you
happy with the results? Would they suit a low volume, high mix contract
manufacturing environment?


Thanks, your comments are welcome
