Thanks for the reply and this is the best one to get know about this print pump. Detailed and brief information.

I was curious if anyone else has ever added water soluble flux to water soluble solder paste that is only a few days old, but is too dry to use in production. Also, are there any known bad side effects to this process. I have already searched the arc

I would advise that you clean the stencil thoroughly at least every 4 hours, also though it is worth cleaning the stencil top and bottom after any breaktimes. To avoid solder paste drying off in stencil apertures. Best piece of kit I've purchased was

empf issued an excellent study of calculated solder volume in the 90's. It used lotus 123 but is easily used in excel. I have used it for over 10 years. The only thing wrong is with leadless components. the amount of paste required generally is insuf

Here’s a Tweet that I made here [http://blogs.smtnet.com/smt/smt-placement/ipc-apex-2013-my-tweets/ ] … Hisco’s computer controlled frig for managing solder paste inventory … way more sophisticated than that old white frig. Davef I receive no benefi

To dyoungquist - I understand that situation. I can see where that is possible in the case that your paste has gone a bit dry. As you said, not neccessarily the recommended practice, and yes your print regularity can go out the door. However, I th

We use water soluble solder paste. When it gets a little dried out, can we add something to rejuvenate it? Liquid flux? We do not place components, just print and reflow the solderpaste so solderballs, spattering, and other issues like those are of

Most solder paste has a shelf life of 1 week at room temperature after opened, if resealed at the end of the shift/day. Most shelf lives are 4-6 months at 40F (refridgerated) or 1 month at room temp (unopened/sealed). Recommended stencil life is appr

It's unusual to use a horseshoe shaped pad for a 0805. Commonly when people want to reduce the paste volume to reduce solder balling, they print a "home plate" aperature. We print paste 1:1 with the pad. �IPC-7351 LP Wizard� is the library mainten

Hi, I'm from a semiconductor package assembly, and currently looking for an offline solder paste inspector capable of true volume measurement. Any recommendation for a machine that can measure paste volume on a leadframe (metal substrate)? I found
