Hi, I have never been able to find an acceptable dispense process for dispensing small dots of solder paste. I currently have an auger screw automated dispense system and can not accomplish 0.010" dot sizes. In addition, stencil printing is much m

I am looking at dispensing solder paste using a Fuji GLV glue dispenser. This is to enable us to produce prototype pcb's without the need to purchase a stencil. Has anybody tried this before? If so what problems should I expect to encounter.

The FGLV has a air pressure displacement valve, which is designed for adhesives. A positive displacement valve is better suited for solder pastes. Check with Fuji to see if they offer optional valves.

With a standard valve and no-clean solder paste you may get a few good dots. But, repeatability will be terrible too many variable, air-pressure, board height (two post nozzle), valve time on/off, retract height, retract time, etc... A RMA paste wi

Does anyone out there have experience dispensing solder paste with a Universal GDM (4716AL) with positive displacement pumps? I'd like to hear any comments on the success or failure of the machine to dispense consistently, effect of temperature varia

Has anybody successfully used an automated dispensing system to put solder paste dots on .5 mm pitch pads?? I need to replace some Meritec tsop sockets and I don't want to use the single site stencils for .5 mm parts.

Seeing this graphic has me rethinking solder paste jetting as alternative to stencil printing. It seems it's only 2-3x faster 80k points per hour vs 28k. Wouldn't it be better to get 10 time pressure dispensers vs 1 solder jet?

What I would ask before actually answering your question is, what is the smallest footprint/pad which can be pressure dispensed/jet printed? Regards, Tom.
