FORMULA OTHER THAN LxBxZ? - Paste is X% [X=~50] metal by volume. Your paste supplier knows the value of 'X'. HOW TO ACHIEVE A CONSTANT REFLOW PROCESS CAPABILITY? - Buy a capable oven, operate and calibrate it properly.

To date, much of this discussion has focused on determining the volume of solder paste. That is but one piece of the measurement of process capability. The other aspect that needs to be evaluated is: an assessment of the accuracy of the positioning

What are the normal control limits in the industry, for a well controlled process, using a 6 mils stencil? Should they be different according to the surface finish (higher UCL for ENIG, Im SN, etc, lower UCL for HASL)? Thanks, Ioan

Are you saying L x W x H didn't answer his question? Unless he wants to know how you're verifying that the post reflow fillet is adequate (which is determined by his pad size as well as your print process and the % metal of your paste), I don't get
