Tim- You have two separate issues 1) Stencils and 2) wave. Stencils you can purchase a ultrasonic system that will remove the paste automatically or you can use stencil wipes to remove it manually. I would refrain from using towels and IPA as it dilu

Hi, There are a number of things you can try. You are already using 1:1 hole to pad ratio, and that's good as you need the size. I would try an electroform stencil as that will have a smooth side of the aperture and help paste release. Don't use c

If your image is not defined properly, it will affect positioning and optimization. You can choose center, rear or front image justification. If your values are grossly off, your positioning will be off, and you may not be able to optimize properly,

Sounds like a epididymis! It depends on your paste chemistry. You can't just slap any old saponifier in there. Most water based cleaners evaporate the water and you have to remove the dried paste. It's a bit messy, maybe that's why your's is over

M, The paste height is what you establish it as. You're probably using a laser measurement system, and these depend on where your reference datum is. Some will measure from a silkscreen, a trace, or solder mask. These add height, not to mention H

Check placement pressure. I agree with the "smushing" theory. If you can place the component with less pressure, I'd do that first. A switch to Type three paste is also a good idea, as long as your minimum aperture dimension remains at 0.009" as you

There is no standard, nor should there be [because the IPC standards should be aimed at describing results, not the path used to reach the results]. So, your printer equipment supplier recommendations are a good starting point. Your "35-46 lbs-in"

Thinking about this auto-mode on Grid-Lok..... Ok, the board is warped, lets say positively, the pins conform to the warped board... what about the effect on top side and squeegee pressure? It will be much higher and could damage stencils, right? Pos

Hi all, What are the pro's and cons of pasting ahead? The definition of pasting ahead for this question is the act of pasting 10 or 15 pc boards and then running then repeat. I do not like this philosophy. I'd prefer to paste, run, reflow then
