        Another reason for this problem is that the composition of the solder wire used throughout the production, processing, and manufacturing process changes, resulting in excessive residue and the need to add pure tin or replace the solder wire. Spot printed laminated glass undergoes changes in the physical state of chemical fiber layers, such as separation between layers. But this type of situation is not due to poor spot welding. The reason is that the base steel plate is too hot, so it is necessary to reduce the heating and soldering wire temperature or increase the driving speed of the base steel plate.  In general, the solder wire of the module half hole PCB board appears dark gray, but sometimes there are orange spot welds. The key reason for this problem is that the temperature is too high, and only lowering the temperature of the tin furnace is sufficient.
