Kester NXG1: The Superior Alternative to Leaded Solder Paste

Historically tin-leaded solder has been typically used in joining material in electronics manufacturing. However, due to environmental awareness and health concerns (related to the leaching of lead from land fills into ground water) legislation was developed and a restriction for the use of lead in electronics manufacturing was initiated. 

For this reason, an alternative to leaded solder paste was was researched. Alternatives to leaded paste were both tested and researched and after comprehensive studies- lead-free tin-silver-copper (or SAC) solder paste was voted as the preferred soldering paste for the electronics assembly industry.

With this idea in mind and with the use of superior breakthrough technology, Kester developed it's lead-free soldering paste solution: Kester NXG1 Soldering Paste. Unlike other SAC lead-free, no-clean solder pastes, Kester NXG1 is seen as superior in that it has the widest reflow process window available. NXG1 provides the smoothest and seamless joints of any lead free paste on the market, and the difference from SNpB alloy to lead-free is crystal clear. Additional characteristics outlined below will absolutely make the transition to lead-free easier on users both individual users and contract manufacturers alike.

NXG1 Lead Free Solder Paste Characteristics:

Ultra-low BGA Voiding: Low void performance is a must for most assemblies today reducing rework and costs and improving first pass yields.

Reduced Ball-in-socket Defects: Designed specifically to reduce or fully eliminate the occurrence of ball-in-socket (also known as "head-in-pillow" and "foot-in-mud) defects.

Excellent Printability: Consistent solder paste volume deposits regardless of idle time, stencil life and print speed. This is the most important characteristic of any solder paste, as print volume inconsistency is the top cause of defects in electronic assembly. Excellent print definition and bridging prevention due to its non-slumping chemistry. The solder brick maintains its shape without variation over time. This attribute avoids bridging especially in fine-pitch components, saving the customer from wasting time and money on rework.

Longest Shelf Life: NXG1 has the longest shelf life, at 8 months, of any lead-free, no-clean paste on the market. A longer shelf life will help reduce scrap and waste while allowing for more manageable inventory.

Clear, Probeable Residues: The lightest colored residues of any paste in its class. Increased re-flow temperatures required by lead-free assembly tend to char, darken, and harden post-soldering residues. NXG1 offers best-in-class residue appearance and penetrability making AOI and manual inspection effortless.

Your project does not end when you stop making it, it ends when it is properly disposed of. 

Kester NXG1 Lead-Free Solder Paste: an environmentally friendly, electronic manufacturing solution. Available in both 500 gram jars and 600 gram cartridges.

Excelta Cutters

Today we're taking a look at Excelta Cutters and some of their features such as cut type, grip, and head shape. Excelta Cutters are available in many different combinations of these options as well as lengths and materials.

Cutter Cut Type

Cut type is determined by the out side angle of the cutting blades. The three different options are semi-flush, maximum flush, and optimum flush. The cutting blades are at a 45 degree angle  with a .010 inch bevel, a 45 degree angle with a .005 inch bevel on a maximum flush cutter, and finally the cutting edges are completely out with no bevel on an optimum flush cutter. The main consideration when choosing what cut type is best for you would be the needs of the application and longevity. A semi-flush cutter will last the longest and be able to complete a greater amount of cuts then both the maximum flush and optimum flush. Optimum flush produces the least amount of total cuts.

Different Cutter Grips

The Three different handle grips available from Excelta on their cutters are molded grips, double-dip grips, and foam cushion grips. All of these grip types are static dissipative.

Various Cutter Head Shapes

Round head shape is the most common head shape due to the fact that their is more metal behind each cut made. This adds to the longevity of the tool and overall durability. Excelta Rounded Head Cutters are available in small round, medium round, and medium tapered also known as relieved head cutter sizes.

Excelta's Lazer Line aka Slimline Cutters

These cutters use the most advanced CNC machining and have induction hardened to 63-65 RHC to produce the best cutter available on the market. Now these cutters have a safety wire catch option. This feature allows the the cutter to cut and hold the lead. This feature helps prevent injury in the work place and has the suffix "-W" on the end of the part number.

What are the Advantages of using Kester Flux when Soldering Components on a PCB?

We recently had a customer ask us what the advantage was for using Kester Flux when soldering components on a PCB. They also wanted to know how flux is supposed to be used. So in case any of our other readers were wondering, we decided to take some time and discuss this topic.

Using Solder Flux on PCBs

For starters, one of the main purposes of Soldering Flux (as well as acting as a surfactant), is that it cleans the oxidized residue off of metal and protects the bar metal during soldering.

Soldering Flux is exceptionally useful as without flux such as Kester Solder Flux, the user would be trying to solder to copper or tin oxide, and the heat would be making the oxide layer thicker as it is a natural of metal when it combines with oxygen in the air. It is often useful to apply extra flux in the application, especially if the user is needing to make a joint quickly - as it reduces the risk of damaging a component. With this said, Kester Flux Pens are often the easiest way to do this - in that a user can simply wipe the flux pen across the area to be joined and then quickly solder.

Additionally, Soldering Flux is considered to be essentially impossible when soldering fine pitch components such as TQFP.

How to Clean Flux from a PCB After Soldering

You can clean your PCB after soldering with Flux Remover (the purer the Isopropyl Alcohol in the Flux Remover, the less chance for less over residue and 99.8% is the purest available) and a brush, cotton or foam swab, or any other soldering cleaning method. Following, use a can of Techspray Pressurized / Compressed Air and blow it dry. However, the best recommendation is to clean the printed circuit boards after manual soldering is to use an ultrasonic machine.

Why Clean with Flux Remover

Essentially the user should remove the Soldering Flux so debris will not stick to the circuit boards later and cause shorts. It also removes splashes of solder and any other residue which then allows the user to see if they left any unwanted debris on the boards. The less left on the board, the better as it reduces the chance for shorts.

What about you? What is your best method to remove solder flux from a PCB?
