Hi Guys, I'd like to share this to all of you...you can start playing with the rests...Stated prices, if not indicated, are in Aussie $ or Singapore $. Stencil Printing Adhesive Pros a) Less Capital Equipment Cost (Short Term). In reality it is f

It may be worth mentioning to those that do not have the ability to rotate the PCB, that some folks adjust their aperture design on fine pitch leads by increasing the aperture size for those leads parallel to the X axis, thus allowing consistent volu

Hello Friends: I'm new in SMT process, I have a problem with little balls of solder beside of the component, I'm tried reducing the apertures in the stencil and making home base, some times the balls desappear, but some time not, and some times

Pete, I'm wondering how much optimisation you needed (or were allowed) to do with respect to connector design. The first one we evaluated had a row of leads that I can only describe as "crescent" shaped in cross section. Impossible to get even 50%

| Hello everyone, | We found many cylindrical diodes missing during SMT process. Could someone tell us how to prevent this problem? Is it effective to change the shape of stencil apture or reduce fan speed in reflow oven? Thanks in advance. | | Gyve

I found solderballs are around chip components (on one side of middle area), I checked gerber data, solder paste of aperture on the stencil for these chip components have 5% reduction to solder land on PCB, shape of solder land are square, not home p

Help us understand your situation by telling us about: * Is this a terminal-to-terminal short on a single MELF? Or is this a terminal-to-terminal short between or than one MELF? * Clearance of 0.8mm is the distance between what features? * Size ME

Solder preforms can be used in SMT assembly for through-hole pin-in-paste process. In this process and modified aperture is used to print the paste with standard stencil printing, then a solder preform is picked and placed by a machine into the solde

"1/2 of the paste volume is lost from the flux and carriers being removed during the reflow." Don't forget the intersticial space between your solder spheres that you lose during reflow. Not being of an engineering background I couldn't begin to a
