if your vacuum is getting through your board then it sounds like your vacuum tooling is wrong. you shouldn't have vacuum points at areas of the board where there are PTH's or via's.

I dont have much choice because the vaccuum is right underneath the whole board, it sucks the board fairly hard. The only thing holding the board is the vacuum and board supports.

Maybe you stencil height measurement is being affected. Check your tactile sensor, it may be sticking due to paste or adhesive getting on it.

Sounds like your stencil might not be tight enough. Are you having print problems because of this? If not I wouldn't be too worried about it. good luck, pr

The tactile sensor seems to be fine. I think it may have something to do with the stencil being not as tight as to one that is on a stainless steel frame. When we set the height of the stencil we have to do it towards the back of the stencil becaus

The vacuum will pull the stencil towards it if there isn't a frame because the front and back of the stencil aren't being supported by anything. Can't you use a frame, they're only about �20.

The big advantage of frameless is storage space. The big disadvantage is getting the stencil tight (and cuts on operators). pr

This is why I disqualified frameless stencils. All that I have seen do not seem to be tight enough. Introducing 1 more variable into screen printing did not seem like a good idea. Jerry

I would suggest 1) Use the profile that is suggested with the BGA types you are using or 2) Have you solder paste rep visit for a half day and help profile your machine. Remember if they want to keep you as a paste customer they will help. Enjoy,

Hello all. I need a file or a link to a kind of library for package, component picture and description. I need it for programming AOI templates. Thanks. Good day
