221C). 2D vision can very effectively detect % pad coverage, I use it on my DEK and this customer has an MPM which I also believe to be capable. Here is another fact, when the customer uses Brand X solder paste the defects due to what they call pad

try Almit Sn62 HM1 RMA V14L ....its the best no clean lead paste for wetting...I sell it and it has solved wetting problems many times when users have used other pastes

I am a big fan of AIM SnPb solder paste. I currently use NC257-2 (no-clean, 89.5%), and recommend you include it in your evaluations.

Does anyone have any insight on alternatives to Indium NC-SMQ 92J solder paste for minimizing poor wetting on parts with oxidized leads (see datasheet here: http://www.dtsprocess.com/contents/articlefiles/6-SMQ92j.pdf). I am considering setting up a

Perhaps a photo of the faults you are encountering might shed some light on the issue. I would think it would take some extremely poor paste handling or paste for the paste itself to be the root cause of what you seem to be describing. I would be inc

Pressure printing systems Conventional stencil printing techniques have fundamental limitations as regards paste handling: The volume of paste available for printing is limited, so frequent replenishment is necessary Paste is difficult to c

Then how do we explain the poor printing performance (appears to be rheology based, paste thickening/drying, poor aperture fill, sticking to the blades, etc.) of paste that has exceeded it's shelf life? You know, the stuff that no amount of stirring

Hi, I facing some 1005 component with poor wetting and look like not enough solder...... Is there any standard solder paste volume requirement. Appreciate all the input.

All of what Dave says is spot on. I suspect that the most likely corresponding defects on your assemblies would be poor wetting and insufficient solder.

Potential impacts of using expired solder paste are [University of Bolton]: * Changed paste rheology. Result: poor print quality * Loss of solvents. Result: reduced flux activity * Changed flux formulation. Result: More difficult to clean flux residu
