How do you make billions of solder joints with 100% reliability
so that your product can dominate a market?
Solution
Most manufacturers of solder-laden or solder bearing edge clips
design flaws into their products that result in a significant
number of joint
failures
in the soldering process.
They neglect to have the solder bearing feaure in contact with
the mating surface. Somehow solder is expected to "magically" leap
from the solder bearing edge clip to the substrate.
Solder retention features are designed on the solder bearing
edge clips that hold solder in place so well that it cannot move
to
the substrate during reflow.
Simple solder cladding is used that is so thick in the contact
area that when solder reflows, the clips fall off the substrate
because there is no spring pressure holding the terminal in place
until the solder can solidify.
How many of your products are rejected and reworked because
of a poorly designed metal stamping that was the lowest price
of three bids?
