First thing to check is that you have a good gasket between the PCB and the stencil (if not check that the tactile is free of paste at the base of it and calibrate the tactile. I am assuming it is not a head mounted tactile) Also check that the wipe

| I am looking for anyone out there that has had experience with stenciling with chipbonder adhesives. I need information on material and stencil design. The firm who can help is K&J marketing their new KEPOCH stencil material is a (plastic) polyimi

I cannot report having experience with 0201 printing applications on flex circuits. Generally, I would be concerned with handling of the flex substrate. A carefully designed vacuum capable custom tooling fixture would likely be required to ensure p

I asked several people their opinion of HASL 0201 pads and there was no positive feedback whatsoever. The most common concern was the domed/convex shape of the pad finish that would result in aperture gasketing problems, which you may already have e

It depends on your product requirements. We don't like to print off-pad, because: * Tough to control the amount of paste that squirts onto the board, because the aperture is not gasketed to the pad on the board. * Some paste that squirts between the

Make sure that the side of the square is the diameter of the pad, That is that the circle is inside the square not that the square is inside the circle. normally the aperatures are smaller than the pad to get gasketing. In this case the idea is to

Nippy, This is exactly what we are seeing. The exessive pads are all on one side of the board. This is a 10 up panel 5x2. All of the QFP's on one side on the panel are not releasing or are not gasketing and causing bridging. So the defects are rangi

Hi, We are not using vaccum caps. The support pins for both printers is the same ande cover all board (components only on Top side of the PCB). I will check snap-off (right know setting 0.2-04. mm/s). I also suspected poor gasketing but clamps are o

Just to add to what dave said, the only limitation to how frequently you clean is the cost of the cleaning medium. You can wipe every board if you want to, but you'll go through material accordingly. If you're printing 16mil pitch or smaller, cleani

If this is same TennRich Type B [ http://www.tennrich.com/trtw/TR_PI_Prod_Info.php?pid=2 ] that is an EMI gasket, it needs to be glued with a conductive adhesive. It has the same thermal capability as a Snickers Bar, about 90*C top end.
