hi All, Anyone use snap on type EMI sheilding before? I would like to provide a DFM to a customer who currently have a EMI shield soldered on the boards, which i found this not quite manufacturing friendly as it block the view for inspection, plus re

Hi Adrian, If you do a "squeegee snap off" during solder paste printing...the result would be a very thick solder paste deposition. I think the correct term is stencil snap off or people say it "snap off distance". =)

What is squegee snap off and how is it measured?

Snap off is the distance from the top of the board to the bottom of the stencil.

Hi, This a dull question I know, but I have a boss who want's an answer... PCB snap-offs: * Design keep them to a minimun to save cost on the PCB * Production want more to stabilise the board when it goes through the process as some PCBs partially

SQUEEGEE snap off is the gap between the top of the stencil and the the bottom of the squeegee blades. You can measure it with a set of feeler gauges.

I thought the stencil was flush to the top of the board when Screen printing. When does this snap off occur in the screen printing process?

Snap on is likely to have less of an effect than soldered on, as the solder forms more of an effective Faraday cage. That said, it depends on how effective you need it. Rob.

If you're using vaccuum to hold the board, too much vacuum can cause bad print. This generally occurs during snap off. You can either decrease snap-off time of reduce vacuum.
