I almost always go with an overprint as long as it's feasible. I haven't had much problem with solder-balling when overprinting. I'd give it a try and see how it works for you.

Hello, We have problems with insufficient solder volume on a component. To solve this problem, we want to add more paste to the component. We have two options for this: 1. run a stencil with a step to achieve the required volume. 2. overprinting

OK good if you get really close to the two small solder balls trapped in that greasy waxy residue and carefully turn the balls over you should see that they are flat on the side stuck to the solder resist.

The Single Solder ball stuck to the mask may indicate undercured as well. The issue is not so much the mild No Clean flux but the potentially major active HASL flux or Silver Process chemistries causing issues. This has been through flow solder hasnt

| We had a similar problem. But whenever the solder came from the screen printer the solder would wet to the gold fingers, with the help of residual flux. But the problem is balls, that I assume are not wetted to the gold fingers but instead are jus

Hi its undercured solder resist which leaves a clear waxy/oily residue and can be seen as brown tar/oil in the molten solder wave. This also causes MicroSolder Balling and some snail trails of solder pick up and worst case bridging and peeling resist

HELLO BILL I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR YOU 1:HOW ARE YOU CLEANING YOUR STENCIL 2:ARE YOU SINGLE OR DOUBLE PRINTING. 3:ARE YOU USEING VACUUM FIXTURES OR NOT? HERE ARE SOME OTHER THINGS TO TRY. IF YOU ARE CLEANING YOUR STENCIL OFTEN BECAREFUL OF USEING
