Thanks for the input.... I ordered a 5 mil stencil AND used more tooling under the board. This gave me a much smaller deposit of solder. I wouldn't swear that was my problem but 96 boards later the problem is 99% gone. I believe there was just too mu

STARTING RANGES * Pressure � 1 pound/inch of blade (metal); 1.6-3 pound/inch (plastic) * Speed - 0.5 to 3 inch per sec [for standard pitch]; 0.5 to 1 inch per sec [for fine pitch] Your paste supplier�s recommendation is a good place to start. * Sepa

| Does anyone have any information on stencil aperture/pad ratios for noclean solder paste. In the past I have experienced severe solder ball problems when using the same size apertures from aqueous products as I do with the No-clean products. Cons

We produce a board right now with a QFP that has 20 mil pitch and we are seeing problems with the solder deposition. I believe it to be a cleaning issue which we are addressing. Soon we will be pasting for bga's. Is there a problem with using inter

Hi, I am loading a new board with mostly 0603 packages. The pads are .5 mm apart and I am having a big problem with parts shifting towards eachother instead of centering on the pads. I believe this is caused by too much solder. I am using a 7mil sten

I have printed and placed similar devices in high volume with exactly this spec for a couple of years with no problems, are you using laser cut stencils and what type of solder paste are you using? and what is the end use of the product as it may nee
