Finish and Quality
Quality depends on proper temperatures when heating and on properly treated surfaces.
| Defect | Possible causes | Effects |
|---|---|---|
| Cracks | Mechanical Stress | Loss of Conductivity |
| Cavities | Contaminated surface
Lack of flux |
Reduction in strength
Poor conductivity |
| Wrong solder thickness | Wrong solder temperature
Wrong conveyor speed |
Susceptible to stress
Too thin for current load |
| Poor Conductor | Contaminated solder | Product Failures |

Famous quotes containing the words finish and/or quality:
“The true runner comes to the finish and receives the prize and is crowned.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
“If behind the erratic gunfire of the press the author felt that there was another kind of criticism, the opinion of people reading for the love of reading, slowly and unprofessionally, and judging with great sympathy and yet with great severity, might this not improve the quality of his work? And if by our means books were to become stronger, richer, and more varied, that would be an end worth reaching.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
