Hi Barry, One consideration that you may want to consider is the lead to hole ratio. The higher the ratio, the less solder is required to fill in the gaps and give you a fillet. Heat is a concern. You will need to ensure components will take the he

We are in the process of preparing for a new board that requires paste in hole processing. The hole is a .020" via, and our customer wants it filled with solder, but not bulging past flush. For printers,we use a DEK 249 with a squeegee, and a DEK 260

Wayne, Earl, I wish there was some way we could toss our wave solder machine forever! Unfortunately, we haven't found a way yet to do paste-in-hole reflow for large numbers of thru-hole axial and radial components, which we insert on Universal machi

Stencil apertures are cut to deposit solderpaste onto the annular ring, provided its wide enough. Then you can place a solder preform if needed to ensure there is enough solder to fill the barrel. Here is some information on solder preforms: http://

The typical PIP process is incorporated into the surface mount process. This approach requires the following: The stencil will be designed so that the correct amount of solder paste can be printed onto the through-holes to form an acceptable joint

Bill, We do solderpaste reflow on through-hole here every day on plated-thru-holes. We do it on connectors only. It is a reliable process. We use no special profile. The stencil apertures must be modified for this process. Check out the IPC-7525 "St

The problem you create by soldering from solder destination side (presuming you have already soldered from other side) is that you will trap air in PTH so you have virtually no continuous solder in PTH from one side to other. This will not meet IPC-A

No paper thing, while I can make some suggestions based on my experience. what is the size of your via? If it's smaller than dia0.4mm, in PCB production process it should be filled by soldermask. So my suggestion is design it to be full filled by SM
