How to place pin supports the same everytime a board is ran?

In my opinion, the best solution is h-towers or similar dedicated tooling designed for each build. However, a quick cheap fix is to make templates to lay in the bottom of the centernest. If you have access to CAD software, you can print out the ger

How to reduce solder joint voids of LED without using vacuum reflow?

Solder paste flux is main contributor, Lead termination chemical-oxide by products and PCB Plating-Chemicals. Reflow profile would have very limited if not no impact really unless is way off. Paste volume control and Stencil design plays a big part

Can the old datecode Entek PCB be converted to HASL ?

I thought I responded this this a while ago, guess NOT!!! Wow, Dano yagot Entek boards that are that old!!!! Coo. Sounds kwazy that you�d end-up with that volume of old boards, but it�s probably one of those deals where correcting the problem keep

Dear Dreamsniper, A big hidden cost in any cleaning system is the cost of diminished production and rework. I assume you are cleaning the adhesive stencils manually since there is no equipment cost in your formula. Manual cleaning of adhesive sten

Stencil Tension

Yes, we have an SOP on how to measure. Basically, calibrate the measuring device and measure tension on the 4 sides and one at the center of the stencil. All measurement should be within 30 ~ 50 N/cm otherwise we will not use it and return it to sten

Thank you for your reply Djo. What do you consider a normal range tension for 29" stencil on a hard frame? Also I am not sure how I can use micrometer in the middle of 29" stencil to measure the thickness? CAn you please clarify?

There's a lot of parameters to consider in defining stencil life cycle. Average squeegee pressure used, in-process cleaning frequency (auto and manual), physical appearance over time, tension reading over time, and so on to decide how many print cycl

Frameless Stencils

Hello, I'm doing some research on frameless stencils/stencil frames and I'm looking for people's thoughts on them. I'm looking for any and all thoughts/opinions on how well they work or don't work. Some specific areas of interest: tensioning in one

Solder Balls at component side around Pin in Paste components

Electronics Forum | Tue Nov 25 05:20:20 EST 2014 | grimus

Could be. I am making overprint to achieve proper amount of solder paste inside hole. Now I am trying to reduce maximum overprint and compensate it with step - up stencil. This could reduce effect that some particles of solder paste are not gathering

Stencil-PCB Alignment Mehods - Printing process

Electronics Forum | Fri Dec 09 15:10:55 EST 2011 | davef

Can you use the equipment manual as the basis for learning how to use the machine? Each model of printer has different alignment techniques. We don't have a clue of your model type. So, we'll approach the question from its most basic point. Registe
