measuring Paste volume or at least paste height is an essencial part of any SMT process. You've got to control those input's.... Paste volume determines how much solder is available for your joint so theres a direct to joint reliability / PCB reliabi

Reflow soldering lead onto much larger pad

Apply the correct amount of paste for the pad size should work ok, as long as the part starts out in the paste. If you have a reduced aperture and the leg doesn't quite touch any paste could result in non-wetting or insufficient solder issues. I gu

You're creating a new alloy on the surface of your board. The alloy will have a melting point determined by the constituent metals of the alloy. Your alloy consists of: * Lead-free HASL solderability protection on the board * Lead-free solder paste *

The root cause is dependant on the type of solder "splash", ball, whatever, that you are seeing post reflow. If it is smears, then cleaning the stencil underside is probably the answer. Are you using automatic wipers? How many print cycles between w

Hey, this is something that I've looked at and published a paper on back in 2003 at Apex, actually pert of one, the other part was lookign at how effective X-ray systems (lamanography systems) were at detecting & measuring BGA void size accuratly (co

The specific answer depends on what your specific application includes. #1: What are you removing? (solder paste, adhesives) #2: What are you cleaning? (stencils, screens, misprints, pallets) #3: What type of machine are you using? (Spray-in
