Is it possible to have zero flux or paste spattering for all smt reflow pcbs. We are seeing around 0.4% of flux spattering and looking forward to zero defect.

With a properly designed and maintaned stencil, good solderpaste and board supports on the printer you can even go down to 0.4mm (16mil) with good results.

Any aperture/stencil thickness suggestion to provide a rigid solder joint for 0.8mm pitch PBGA with 0.4mm ball diameter. The pad is based on IPC7095 and it is 0.3mm. Thank!

Hi We did some evaluation to solder 0.4mm pitch by Wave. We found that there were many solder shorts at Sockets pins so it made touch up time longer. Please advise me someone has achieved the fine pitch soldering by wave. Thanks in advance.

What is the difference between jet printing & jet dispensing. Our's is small prototyping, high reliability PCB assembly business. The SMT components used are up to 0.4 mm pitch BGA & 0201 size chips. Which is more suitable for us?

6 mil (0.15mm) for the 1.13mm pitch BGA, and 4 mil (0.1mm) for the smal QFN with 0.4mm pitch.

Hi Jandon, Thanks, I will try it on my DOE.

Yes, 0.25x0.25 square could work @0.1 thickness, use nano-coating or electroform stencil for better solder paste release.

Use a type 5 solder for maximum paste release.
