Hi Buddy, We've tried shifting to this process before and from our point of view here are some of the advantage and disadvantages that we discovered. Advantage 1) Cheap Equipment cost as you just need to use your Solder Paste Printer rather than buy

Hi, Our SMT line has placement capacity of 80K cph, but only 21K cph gluing capacity. The rate between reflow and glue of our products is around 5 to 1. The line works great for the reflow boards, but when we produce glue boards the glue dispenser

When rushing to get a job done, it's easy to accidently remove solder mask from a nearby via when dressing BGA pads after removing the part. Just hit the via with some super glue [then say a small prayer] and push on. As an alternative, look here:

Youch! I know this is going to sound stupid but.... I have done it in the past in limited quantities. We placed capton (polyimide) tape at each of the four corners for a similar situation. It did work but the operator has to be careful in placing
