We do this quote often with our older Summit machine. there are a few ways to do this. all of these are assuming you have parts on the boards already and are working around them. 1- if you have a good tech that can add solder to the pads on the PCB a

| I use a Transition Automation Semi- Automatic stencil printer with laser cut frameless stencils. My solder paste is an SN63/PB37 RMA 291. I do not operate with in a controlled humidity enviroment. The room temp generally runs around 70 deg's but hu

| General Question to anyone. If you were to go out and build the ideal stencil for pasting boards, what would be the best way to build a stencil? I have some boards that have 19.7 mil pitch parts and the pad width is 10 mil. The length of the pa

My first concern would be the choice of solder paste you have. There are better chemistries out there that far exceed the capabilities of the 609 2. Yes, the part will partially float on the solder (assuming plastic qfp). Cross sectioning would sho

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

You need to perform process a capability study prior to putting these controls into place. Cleaning a stencil after each pass will get ugly, solvent residues remaining in apertures etc. 2D inspection is good. Change paste every hour will get very

Hello Mark, I can�t provide any hands on feedback with 0402 packages but we are using a no clean process with 0603 devices. Here are some parameters which will affect solder balling. Stencil thickness, aperture size, paste viscosity, snap off and bot

Mark, I had the same peoblem. For my stencils i use a 15% reduction for the width of fine pitch leads only, as Earl said follow the 1:1.5 standard. We consider pitches of 32mil and under. We also clean the stencil every other board to ensure no caki

Your typical high mix line would consist of, Stencil printer, 1-2 foot conveyor belt, fast PNP machine (say a universal 30 spindle turret lightning head), 1-2 foot conveyor belt, large/heavy part PNP (say a universal flex jet 7 spindle or 4 Spindle),

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
