Any one have experience of MyData paste jet printing? I don't ave chance to take a look at Apex but it can reduce the paste, no stencil required and paste volume control by programming.

Thanks for the reply Dave. :) No, we dont toss in 500g on the stencil. Have you heard of any method to convert the solder paste to solder bar, just in case someone have done that before? Thanks.

Syringe is a good plan. You may need to buy some pnuematic guns to push ou the paste thuogh. Instead of melting the paste down, have someone reclaim for you. They pay you for it. Sorry Maint Managers - gave away your secret.

Have you thought about switching to either automatic paste dispensers or rhemoetric pumpheads in order to contain the paste and only dispense what is needed during your shift ? I am not sure what type of printers you have, but I know both of these o

Yes, looks great - had a play at one of their roadshows. Could turn into an amazing product if they can scale it down enough. However, it's slow and costs more than a large house. More than a screen printer and a huge number of stencils.

We buy our paste in Semco cartridges. You don't need a pneumatic gun to administer the paste to the stencil, just use a caulk gun which you should be able to purchase at your local hardware store. The cheap ones are about $2 (US). We have green

First, don't put solder paste in a wave solder pot, the 50% by volume of organics and volatiles will gas off in an astonishing amount of fume, leaving a dismaying mess of spent resin and molten plastic in your pot. Second, when you say, "Paste that

We are exploring ways to reduce the waste of solder paste. Here are some of the ideas I have in mind: 1) To use paste supplied in Syringe instead of jar. Paste that are opened more than 8 hours will normally be discarded, so we are looking for ways

So, you toss whatever is on the stencil every 8 hours. Correct? How long has it been on the stencil? * If that particular paste has been on the stencil for 8 hours, we'd agree to toss it too. * If paste has been on the stencil for less than 8 hour

We use cartridges, that way nobody can mix back in paste off the stencil and no air can get in period. Any paste that is still good to use when removed from a stencil at the end of a job is put into a small pink zip-lock baggy with the date written o
