New Equipment | Solder Paste Stencils
Laser cut stainless steel stencil for solder paste printing on wafer. Wafer bumping stencils are characterized by a high number of apertures which lie close together in the size of 90µm x 110µm. A package density of up to 250000 openings is not unus
ProActiv is a breakthrough process technology that dramatically improves solder paste transfer efficiency with stencil printing. It redefines the boundaries of Area Ratio rules for stencil apertures, which dictate the smallest apertures that can be p

I am unaware of any industry standard for specifying apertures for SM stencils. I am aware of IPC-7525, Stencil Design Guidelines. You can obtain it from IPC [http://www.ipc.org]. Further, it seems like there is an article on stencil design ever

Stencil printing capability is becoming more important as the range of component sizes assembled on a single board increases. Coupled with increased component density, solder paste sticking to the aperture sidewalls and bottom of the stencil can cause insufficient solder paste deposits and solder bridging. Yield improvement requires increased focus on stencil technology, printer capability, solder paste functionality and understencil cleaning.(...) The purpose of this research is to study the wipe sequence, wipe frequency and wipe solvent(s) and how these factors interact to provide solder paste printing yield improvement.
Swiftmode's Hyperclean Under Stencil SMT Wiper Rolls are the only product in the market that has beed developed specifically for the application. Best vacuum performance, less IPA usage and No loose fibres making the solder paste printing process mor
