Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of electronic manufacturing industry, and particularly relates to a lead-free wave solder blow hole processing process control method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of electronic industry, as an indispensable key component in electronic equipment, the manufacturing process of printed circuit board (PCB) is also constantly evolving. Among the many manufacturing links of PCB, the soldering process is particularly important, which is directly related to the electrical performance, reliability and service life of electronic equipment. Lead-free tin wave soldering technology has been widely used in the field of electronic manufacturing because it meets environmental requirements and has good soldering performance. However, in the actual production process, lead-free tin wave soldering process faces many challenges, among which the blow hole problem becomes a key problem restricting its further development and application.
[0003] From the perspective of welding principle, when the PCB board is soldered downstream, the moisture of the base material in the broken hole rapidly expands in high temperature to generate a certain air pressure, which blows out the molten tin filled in the hole, thereby forming a "blow hole".
[0004] Blow hole (also known as blow hole) traditionally refers to the existence of broken hole (void) on the finished PTH copper wall. When the PCB board is soldered downstream, it may cause the moisture of the base material in the broken hole to rapidly expand in high temperature to generate a certain air pressure, which blows out the molten tin filled in the hole. After cooling, the tin column in the hole will have a hollow. This poor quality PTH which can blow air is called "blow hole". The blow hole in lead-free wave soldering is related to drilling, PTH and other processes, and also has a great correlation with board material, wave soldering parameters, flux, component pins and the like.
[0005] The blow hole problem of lead-free tin wave soldering seriously affects the production efficiency and product quality of the electronic manufacturing industry, and the existing solutions have many limitations. Therefore, it is of great practical significance and urgent market demand to develop a new technology or method that can effectively solve the blow hole problem of lead-free tin wave soldering.

Therefore, the features limited by "first" and "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.
[0041] The first aspect of the embodiments of the present application provides a lead-free wave soldering hole processing process control method, comprising the following steps:
[0042] S01. Copper deposition and glue removal treatment is used on the sample, wherein the rate of the copper deposition and glue removal treatment is 0.15-0.6 mg / cm2, and the hole wall back light level after copper deposition is ensured to be ≥9 levels;
[0043] S02. performing a copper electroplating process, wherein, in the step of the copper electroplating process, the current density is 15-25 ASF, and the time is 20-22 minutes;
[0044] S03. further performing a solder mask PTH hole opening process.
[0045] The first aspect of the embodiment of the present application provides a lead-free wave solder hole processing process control method of a system. By limiting the rate of copper deposition and glue removal treatment to 0.15-0.6 mg / cm 2 , and ensuring that the hole wall back light level after copper deposition is ≥ 9 levels, the organic matter and pollutants on the hole wall can be effectively removed, the hole wall surface has good roughness and activity, and an ideal adhesion substrate is provided for subsequent copper deposition, so that the copper deposition layer is closely combined with the hole wall, the defects such as hole wall cavity and fracture are reduced, the continuity and integrity of the copper layer of the hole wall are improved, and the reliability of the PCB hole metallization is enhanced. In the copper electroplating process, the current density is set to 1.8-20 ASF, and the time is controlled to 20-22 minutes, so that the copper layer is uniformly and densely deposited on the hole wall and the surface, the problems such as uneven copper layer thickness and hole caused by improper current density or insufficient time are avoided, the hole copper thickness meets the requirements, and the conductivity and mechanical strength are improved. The solder mask PTH hole opening process performed at the end lays the foundation for the subsequent soldering process, and reasonable opening design can ensure that the solder fills the hole smoothly in the wave soldering process, reduce soldering defects such as hole blowing and virtual welding, and improve the soldering quality and production yield.
[0046] In step S01, the sample is subjected to copper deposition and glue removal treatment, wherein the rate of copper deposition and glue removal treatment is 0.15-0.6 mg / cm2, and the hole wall back light level after copper deposition is ≥ 9 levels. The copper deposition quality is improved, the bonding force is enhanced, and the subsequent copper deposition layer is more closely combined with the hole wall by moderate glue removal to prevent the copper deposition layer from falling off; controlling the glue removal rate helps the copper deposition layer to be uniformly deposited, avoids local copper layer being too thick or too thin, improves the consistency of the hole diameter, reduces the generation of defects such as bubbles in the hole, and reduces the risk of hole blowing caused by uneven copper thickness.
[0047] In some embodiments, the specific steps of the copper deposition and glue removal treatment include: using potassium permanganate at 60-80°C and pH≥12. The specific steps of the copper deposition and glue removal treatment are defined as using potassium permanganate at 60-80°C and pH≥12. Potassium permanganate has stronger oxidizing properties in high-temperature and strong alkaline environments, and can efficiently remove resin drill dirt, colloidal impurities and other impurities on the hole wall, especially for the inner wall of deep holes and high-density holes. High-temperature conditions accelerate the chemical reaction rate, making the glue removal process more complete, and the strong alkaline environment helps to maintain the stability and reactivity of potassium permanganate, ensuring the cleanliness of the hole wall surface and providing a high-quality substrate for the copper deposition process, thereby improving the adhesion of the copper deposition layer to the hole wall, reducing the risk of hole blowing due to hole wall pollution during subsequent welding, and improving the overall performance and reliability of the PCB.
[0048] In some embodiments, the rate of the copper deposition and glue removal treatment is controlled by adjusting the regeneration current or the concentration of the chemical solution in the overall process. The rate of the copper deposition and glue removal treatment is controlled by adjusting the regeneration current or the concentration of the chemical solution in the overall process. This control method has strong flexibility and adaptability, and can adjust the regeneration current or the concentration of the chemical solution in real time according to different production conditions, equipment states, and PCB board materials, hole sizes, etc., to accurately control the glue removal rate and keep it within the ideal range of 0.15-0.6mg / cm 2 This avoids the problems of excessive corrosion of the hole wall due to too fast glue removal rate or incomplete glue removal due to too slow glue removal rate, ensures consistent hole wall treatment effect for each PCB board, improves the stability and repeatability of the process, thereby ensuring the consistency of the copper deposition quality, reducing product defects caused by fluctuations in the glue removal process, and improving production efficiency and product yield.
[0049] In step S02, the copper plating treatment is performed, wherein the current density in the copper plating treatment step is 15-25 ASF and the time is 20-22 minutes. The copper plating hole thickness compensation technology can accurately control the thickness of the hole copper, ensure that the copper thickness of each PTH hole meets the process requirements, and at the same time reduce the dependence on the drilling accuracy. Even if there are certain defects or holes in the drilling process, such as drill bit wear, drilling deviation, etc., the thick copper guide can also compensate for it, thereby reducing the high requirement for drilling accuracy and improving the flexibility and efficiency of production.
[0050] In some embodiments, the electroplated copper thickness of the electroplating copper process is 5-8 μm. A suitable hole copper thickness is a key factor to ensure the electrical conductivity and mechanical strength of the PCB board. If the copper layer is too thin, it may lead to insufficient electrical conductivity, insufficient mechanical strength of the hole wall, and prone to breakage, open circuit and other problems during welding and use; if the copper layer is too thick, it will increase the material cost and electroplating time, and may also lead to uneven copper layer in the hole. Controlling the thickness to be 5-8 μm can meet the requirements of electrical conductivity and mechanical strength, and also take into account production efficiency and cost. A uniform and dense copper layer can effectively conduct current, withstand thermal stress and mechanical stress during the welding process, reduce welding defects and product failures caused by improper copper layer thickness, and improve the reliability and service life of the PCB board.
[0051] In some embodiments, the electroplated copper thickness of the electroplating copper process is 8-11 μm. When using the tin removal and hot air leveling process, the electroplated copper thickness is 8-11 μm. The tin removal and hot air leveling process has a higher requirement for the thickness of the copper layer. A thicker copper layer can withstand high temperature processing and subsequent welding process, ensure good bonding force between the tin layer and the copper layer, and avoid problems such as tin layer falling off and solder cracking.
[0052] In some embodiments, the electroplated copper thickness of the electroplating copper process is 7-10 μm. When using the gold removal, silver removal and organic solder mask film process, the electroplated copper thickness is 7-10 μm. These processes have relatively low requirements for the thickness of the copper layer. An appropriate thickness can not only ensure the stability of the combination of the surface plating layer and the copper layer, but also save material costs. This differentiated thickness control allows the electroplating process to better adapt to the needs of different surface treatment processes, improves the quality and reliability of the plating layer, meets the needs of various product application scenarios, and improves the overall performance of the PCB board.
[0053] In step S03, the PTH hole windowing process is further performed. The solder mask precision is improved, and the ink printing position is accurately controlled. The blocking point screen printing technology can accurately print the solder mask ink at the predetermined position through special screen design and accurate alignment system, avoid the ink entering the PTH hole; at the same time, reduce the ink diffusion and penetration, which can effectively control the printing thickness and area of the solder mask ink, make the edge of the solder mask layer more neat, reduce the pollution to the surrounding of the PTH hole, improve the solder mask quality and stability, maintain the cleanliness and integrity of the hole wall, which is beneficial to the subsequent welding process.
[0054] In some embodiments, the step of solder mask PTH hole windowing processing includes using a film windowing aperture of 4 mil or a barrier point screen printing technology. In the step of solder mask PTH hole windowing processing, a film windowing aperture of 4 mil or a barrier point screen printing technology is used. The film windowing aperture of 4 mil can accurately control the windowing size of the solder mask ink, ensure that the pads are completely exposed, and avoid the problem that the pads cannot be fully covered by the solder due to too small windowing, or the problem that the ink covers the hole wall due to too large windowing, affecting the welding effect. The barrier point screen printing technology can form a uniform solder mask layer around the hole, prevent the ink from entering the hole, and ensure the neatness of the hole edge. Both of these technologies can effectively avoid the interference of the solder mask ink on the welding area in the hole, ensure that the solder can smoothly flow into the hole during wave soldering, discharge the gas in the hole, reduce welding defects such as blowhole and bridging, improve the reliability and consistency of the solder joints, and improve the welding quality and production yield of the PCB board.
[0055] The second aspect of the embodiments of the present application provides a lead-free wave soldering blowhole processing process control system, comprising:
[0056] A copper plating and glue removal module is used to control the glue removal rate and the backlight level.
[0057] A plating compensation module is used to dynamically adjust the hole copper thickness.
[0058] A solder mask windowing module is used to perform film windowing or barrier point screen printing design.
[0059] The lead-free wave soldering blowhole processing process control system provided by the second aspect of the embodiments of the present application comprises a copper plating and glue removal module, a plating compensation module, and a solder mask windowing module. The copper plating and glue removal module is specially used to control the glue removal rate and the backlight level, and through accurate parameter control and real-time monitoring, the hole wall processing quality is ensured, and a good foundation is provided for subsequent processes. The plating compensation module can dynamically adjust the hole copper thickness, realize more accurate plating control according to different process requirements and hole distribution, and avoid the problem of uneven copper thickness. The solder mask windowing module performs film windowing or barrier point screen printing design to ensure the accuracy and quality of windowing. This system realizes modular control of key links in the process, improves the accuracy and automation degree of process control, can effectively cope with various change factors in the production process, ensures the stability and reliability of the entire processing process, and thus improves the production quality and efficiency of the PCB board.
[0060] In some embodiments, the electroplating compensation module automatically adjusts the compensation amount of isolated holes and dense holes according to the hole distribution density. On a PCB board, the electroplating environment around isolated holes and dense holes is different. Due to the influence of current distribution and chemical solution flow, the hole copper in the dense hole area is prone to be thin, while the isolated hole may cause the copper layer to be too thick due to current concentration. The electroplating compensation module automatically performs different compensation processing on isolated holes and dense holes by identifying the hole distribution density, so that the copper layer thickness of isolated holes is appropriately reduced, and the copper layer thickness of dense holes is improved, thereby ensuring that the copper layer thickness of all holes is uniform, avoiding electroplating defects caused by differences in hole distribution, improving the uniformity and consistency of hole copper thickness, and enhancing the overall performance and reliability of the PCB board.
[0061] In some embodiments, the solder mask windowing module includes an ink coating monitoring unit for real-time detection of ink thickness and uniformity, and feedback adjustment of process parameters. During the solder mask windowing process, the thickness and uniformity of the ink directly affect the quality of the windowing and the solder mask effect. The ink coating monitoring unit can monitor the coating of the ink in real time. Once it is found that the thickness is uneven or does not meet the requirements, the information is fed back to the control system in time, and the coating process parameters such as screen pressure, doctor blade speed, ink viscosity, etc. are automatically adjusted to ensure uniform coating of the ink, accurate windowing size, avoid problems such as poor pad coverage and ink residue in the hole caused by ink coating problems, improve the precision and reliability of the solder mask process, thereby reducing soldering defects and improving the production quality of the PCB board.
[0062] The third aspect of the embodiments of the present application provides a PCB board manufactured by the above-mentioned lead-free wave soldering hole processing process control method or the above-mentioned lead-free wave soldering hole processing process control system.
[0063] The PCB board provided by the third aspect of the embodiments of the present application is manufactured by the above-mentioned lead-free wave soldering hole processing process control method or control system. Because the parameter control of each process step and the accurate adjustment of the system module are strictly followed during the manufacturing process, the problems commonly encountered in traditional processing, such as hole wall pollution, uneven copper layer thickness, and improper solder mask windowing, can be effectively solved, soldering defects such as hole blowing, virtual welding, and solder cracking are significantly reduced, and the conductive performance, mechanical strength, and soldering reliability of the PCB board are improved. The PCB board manufactured by the method and system has higher production yield, more stable performance, and longer service life, and can meet the requirements of modern electronic equipment for high reliability, high density, and high precision of the PCB board, and has a wide application prospect and market competitiveness in the electronic information industry.
