Modify your stencil aperture shape...reduce the solder paste deposited on pad,will reduce the solder balls.Be sure your reflow profile are good before doing this.rising slope is very important. This is my opinion.thanks. Bryan

OK, without knowing the specifics, why does everyone blame the oven? Most solder balls occur around R's and C's in almost every shop I've been to. The best place to start looking is the screen printer - not the oven. Sure the oven is the last proc

Hello, The first thing that you need to do is to make process mapping about this incident, so you can exactly determine all factors and observable changes happened during 2 weeks of timeline difference. According to my experience, if all equipment
