At our facility, we process FR-4 boards for PCMCIA cards (0.020"). The key for us is dedicated fixturing for stencil printing and fixturing for reflow soldering. We are working closely with our customer to better improve panel design, but other than

Steve, Basically in answer to your question, there is no real set number for defects. Defect rates will vary between products and companies. If my company was running the same product as yourself then there is no reason to suggest that the defect ra

We have a great deal of new reliability data and we are preparing a full document that shows the statistically valid reduction in solder related defects as well as the improved throughput. It will include all of the SIR test results which are all goo

We too are trialling WS819 with SAC305 alloy. The foaming in cleaning causes us a headache but all other attributes seem much improved over earlier types. Previously we were using WS619 - no foaming issues but MUCH shorter stencil life (less than 4 h

Hi Before I say anything I ll qualify who I am. I work for a AOI/SPI manuafacturer Automatic printer is your best option for small runs. Print process is responsible for a vast number of solder defects and improving here is your best start. Have a
