Is anyone wave soldering 0603 leadfree succesfully? We have no problems soldering them leaded, but lead free we see a lot of random skips and some shorts. We use SAC. We have tried different fluxes, flux settings, playing around with preheat, soldertime,etc., the basic stuff.

Are there any documents recommending/studying what can/can't be wave soldered lead free?

Every problem faced with (all) lead free alloys can be solved with 2 words �add lead� I'll keep it short don't want to sound like a broken record.

looks like my knowldge preceeds me again. I woud try a different flux. If it doesn't work - it will take a question mark away and your one step closer to total success.

The angle is a standard Soltec 7deg. We don't have the tools to measure this accuratly, but I do trust Soltec on this.
