Optimal Print Parameters: I have responded to a similar question in the thread titled �Stencil Printing For 0201 Applications�, posted by markt and will refer you to that for addressing this question. If you seek clarification on any of those point

I have observed solder balling for all aperture sizes tested. Solder balling levels appear to be better correlated against the amount of solder paste that is underneath the 0201 component terminations after placement rather than comparing this to th

Hi, this is not really a technical solution, just a feedback. we too have a model series using the same WS paste type. it gives a dull solder joint with white residue that can be marginally removed after post-DI water rinse (ie. not 100% removed).

The SMART Group is starting a new project on PPM Monitoring which will be providing average PPM yield data per month free to the industry. I would like to get feedback or exchange criteria for paste printing as non exists with in IPC or similar organ

It should be easy enough for you to do your own study to determine if you need more people or not. The first thing that I would do is optimize or balance your line to the optimum efficiency. That is not a difficult task. Once that is done, analyze yo

Steve, We are touching up 6 - 12% of all solder joints processed. We consider the solder joint to be the focal point of the SMT process. Therefore our metric is based on it. For example in a given month we... 1. Assembled 25pcs of 'A' (IPC-A-610/J

Steve: I agree. Let�s break it down. * I�d rather print paste than glue any day of the week * But I know yera �Dispenser Boy�. In that case, I�d rather dispense glue than paste. * PTH / primary and SMT / secondary is a tough process either way you

Forgive the non-SMT question. That's why I hate through hole boards. Has anyone ever used Bareco wax on pressfit connectors, and how do you produce a consistent process for its application? Any drawbacks? Background: We have found a design issue with

Hi floydl, I completely understand when it comes to data crunching after long hours of performing measurements, it's the last and most important arduous task in obtaining performance data. If a measurement and evaluation process that traditionally to
