Hi, We have always used laser cut with elextropolish, and are getting more fine pitch, lead-less parts etc. I am considering electroform, and does anyone have any experience on how much better it is over lastercut? Regards, Grant

I have recently tried electroform (100% nickel) stencils. Expensive but awesome paste release. 5 mil foil 10 - 15% aperture reduction for gasketing

We have a board with a 1.0mm pitch BGA. The stencil apertures are 0.0177 inch diameter. We used an electroform stencil with good results.
