Good afternoon, Due to problems with power connector soldering I have to overprint paste on pads for this connector. Stencil thickness is 125um and I cannot make it thicker. Area ratio of chip resistor assemblies limits stencil thickness to 125um. R

How about a stepped stencil? Not ideal but ... As far as overprinting goes, try: http://www4.uic.com/wcms/WCMS2.nsf/index/Resources_44.html

Would say about the same as above, 8mm according to a cookson presentation we had, of course it would depend a bit on the paste you are using.

Successful solder paste overprint is a function of the solder paste rheology, solder mask and through hole component stand off. * Solder mask with a high surface energy will permit a larger overprint than a solder mask with a lower surface energy. In

Normally, we try to limit the over print of the paste to the width of the pad on both sides. If you are using 500um pad, then I wouldn't try over a 1500um aperture. Mario Scalzo, CSMTPE, Dartmouth 6 Sigma Green Belt Technical Support Engineer - Ind

Hi Pavel, We regularly use over printing on a multitude of problem parts including fine pitch QFP's. In an Automotive Environment the only thing you can change without a mountain of paperwork is the stencil. best way to work out how much you can get

We are placing several axial components that have STEEL leads. Have noticed that the steel components do not get good flow thru(we manufacture to IPC-A-610 Class II Standards which reqires 75% flow thru) We are using Seho Wave Machines with Nitroge

Hi Mark, Solder paste will not flow on Ni like it appears on HASL. Where you print it is where it will reflow. Has been like that for years. As a CM you should re-engineer / recut your stencil to provide proper solder joints. I seriously doubt i
