Our customers' issues • Apertures are getting smaller • Paste does not release as well • Contaminates the bottom of the stencil • Increases defects / reduces yield Insufficient solder Bridging Solder balls on surface of PCB Flux residue • Requires more frequent cleaning • Reduced efficiency (wasted time) • Increased use of consumables (cost) USC fabric (use "cheap" fabric to reduce cost) Lint creates more defects Cleaning chemistries (use IPA to reduce cost) IPA breaks down flux and can create more defects

Introduced to the electronics market in 2014, NanoSlic is a proprietary thermoset polymer coating that renders metals, glass and polymers hydrophobic and oleophobic for improved protection and performance. FCT has developed not only the breakthrough chemistry, but also the equipment and application process that provide a turnkey stencil coating solution, NanoSlic Gold. Though used in multiple markets (www.nanoslic.com) for various safeguarding purposes, for electronics assembly applications, NanoSlic-coated stencils dramatically improve printing performance.

First published in the 2012 IPC APEX EXPO technical conference proceedings. This paper will examine stencil technologies (including Laser and Electroform), Aperture Wall coatings (including Nickel-Teflon coatings and Nano-coatings), and how these parameters influence paste transfer for miniature devices with Area Ratios less than the standard recommended lower limit of .5. A matrix of print tests will be utilized to compare paste transfer and measure the effectiveness of the different stencil configurations. Area Ratios ranging from .32 to .68 will be investigated.
