Wave soldering
Wave soldering contacts target board areas with a wave-shaped flow of molten solder to solder them.

In context
Distinguish it from reflow, which melts previously printed paste. Component orientation, contact and heating conditions, and protective structures matter.
Example
Do not use reflow oven TAL and wave contact time as the same indicator.
Key distinction
Different process names also involve different definitions of thermal and supply conditions.
