A successful wave solder process starts long before the PCB reaches the solder pot.

Wave soldering remains one of the most effective ways to produce reliable through-hole solder connections, particularly on assemblies with a significant number of through-hole components. But when the board, tooling, component layout, or process isn't well matched to wave soldering, the result can look a lot like the photo above: excessive solder flowing onto areas where it doesn't belong.

Whether you are shopping for a new car, a pair of shoes, or a contract manufacturer, the quality of the item or service matters. Where you spend your money is important and the product you receive should be worth what you pay for! Most companies, brands, or products say they hold high standards and good quality, but do they? There is inherent skepticism when a company claims to have “high-quality,” since that value can be characterized and defined in different ways.

But at RBB, our first-rate service and products are something we are proud of, and we can prove it!
