All, We are getting ready to start running with 0201 passives. I have never run these before. We have run some 0402s however. We don't have any assemblies in-house yet, so I can't give any intelligent information regarding the board design (size,

We don't do any wave, SMT only. We did not have to change apertures for lead free, we use the same stencil that we did when we ran water soluble with pb. This I think might be dependant upon your current design of both pad and apertures however.

"Poor release" (paste hanging-up in the stencil holes) could have three main (or combination of) causes: 1 Equipment * Proper aperture area ratio provide better release * Laser cut release better than chemical etched stencil 2 Process * Snap-off dis

Richard, take a given volume and weigh it. For your parts you have already determined the aperture opening and stencil thickness and that gives you the volume for each lead of the component. This way you should be able to determine the amount of pas

John, having worked at a major U.S. telecommunications co. I can tell you we were placing through hole connectors in SMT. Using MPM printers 3000 2000 AP36 AP24. We opened the apertures on the stencil 25% over lead diameter to allow more paste(it wou
