I have heard about it. The main reason is to save money. The problem is, or better is said, that the mixing isn�t that simple for you got have a homogen paste afterwards and the solderballs shouldn�t be deformed in size so that problems during printi

Depends on the solder paste. If it has been on the stencil for 24h there is a good chance that the paste is destroyed. You can however check if it has not dried out too much by letting the stencil printer do a few strokes and see if the paste still h

Ideally we want to mix the same lot numbers in a repackaged tube. Once again, these are partial tubes that have been thrown away. If the ratio is right to begin with the only change would be due to air exposure. Semco makes a TC seal which, if we

Try buying your paste in 500g pyles cartridges .You can use these cartridges in a standard caulking gun. Also.. have your paste vendor supply you with some empty jars.(They will usually do this free of charge) Whenever you run a job, dispense paste

CPH - 17000 to 40000 depending on compoent density & type. Typically 28K. 0603 rejection rate - negligible. Major breakdowns - none. However preventative maintenance is essential. There are 2 different types of shafts on machines, and some people

Yes, it can evaporate. My point was manufacturers suggest cool storage to avoid seperation. I guess if the flux does seperate and get pushed to the top it could have a greater chance to evaporate. I have only seen such seperation on year + old jar

Does someone with technical knowledge knows what exactly happend with the solder paste after the shelf life pass? What we have seen is sometimes flux separation which disapear after a good mix, and change of viscosity i.e. drying. The tin, silver and
