thanks pete, i have requested information from their local rep in our place. However, from the response that i got, the volume data you get in their VM system is a calculated value, not a true volume measurement.

can you also please tell us the section in IPC-610?...is this in RevD? also, does this also give the solder volume for BGAs? Thanks, Amol

The US EPA has a Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) program. They may have some information on paste wastage estimation for leaded pastes.

Hmmm interesting, we utilize 5 mil stencils and print to same height as you and do not experience these failures. May I ask what paste you are using and what the spacings are of your pad design? But anyhow, if it works it works.

Hi nards I'm not quite sure what your question is. If you mean is paste volume more important than the reflow profile the answer is no. Belt speed is just a part of creating a reflow profile and all aspects I.E. pasting, placing and reflow are jus

Be carefull of the effect on other components with a 7mil stencil, like fine-pitch devices will bridge more, excess solder.

Hello Bart I work with the Koh Young systems. Do you have any sort of data even just X Y posistion and pad or appeture size? If you have I can bypass the Gerber requirement. send me an email at jeremy@christopherweb.com Jeremy

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

We had some materials management brainiac insist that every component of a product had to have an exact quantity stated on the BOM so we had to weigh every board with and without paste printed. We rented a 4 place digital scale, weighed 5 of each boa
