Electronic devices required higher speed, I/O capability, and density to meet standard requirements. Automated robotic soldering solutions that meet the demands of applications are too challenging for hand soldering. Manual soldering, even with the m

You could comprimise on the E-Fab stencil and buy a laser cut nickle, it will have similar release characteristics to an E-Fab and only costs $600, they can be purchased from Stork Veco, they are located in Europe.

Hi Steve-O, Good question(s). This process was set-up by an engineer that had a PhD in statistics, took him a year to develop and then thru it over the wall at us. The biggest problem we saw was SPC to measure solder volume. SPC is good for measu

Perhaps your stencil supplier could laser mark the number on the stencil. This only helps from here on. How about engraving the numbers on the stencils you already have? Engravers are pretty inexpensive and shouldn't damage the stencils.

Trying to find a laser marking machine. Thing is that most of my pcbs have white solder mask, so the when trying to read the 2D code is difficult due to the lack of contrast. Any idea? a different technology? regards

I don't own a laser printer right now. I sent samples to some vendors and I couldn't read the codes. Have pictures of 2D codes on white solder mask? Thanks

Hi Luis A white mask typically helps in the marking process since you are not reliant upon the PCB layers to create the contrast. Laser marking is really an etching process, so if your laser is set properly (power and focus) the goal with mask is to
