Thanks for the reply guys...It was much appreciated. On syringe or Cartridge - what about the impact of flux migration, there was a talk about, periodically we need to turn the cartridge or syringe upside down to ensure the metal content & flux are a

Grant, I know of a couple places that throw their paste out at the end of the day. I have worked in SMT for over 15 years and we have never thrown paste out unless it was contaminated, or dried out. We have never had a problem. If you ask me, I would

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

We've used mostly cartridges for many years and I only saw separation once when a particular paste supplier had a problem. With cartridges it's just thaw and use - no mixing. We have some sites that use jars along with mixers and I've never been co

Without knowing how much you use or what you use it for or what brand and which type, hard to say. In general, follow the Manufacturers recomendations. If you are doing precision work then use cartridges and let them warm up to room temp for a few ho

What I was told is that the stirring is intended to promote some shear thinning, not to redistribute the flux. The cartridges (and I'm assuming the syringes, too, if you're differentiating between the two) alledgedly introduce some shear thinning ju
