The paste you dispense will not solder the same as the one you use with a stencil. The paste for the stencil will have a higher metal content. I was not working with dispensing as small as you are, but after evaluating the cost of the stencil vs. lon

Hello, i don't know if is possible to dispense paste but for reduction of cost we use a diferent type of stencils, from aluminium of 0,2 mm, purchased from a typography of newspapers. Ofcourse the pcb for what we use this stencil are simple. But th

Hi, I have never been able to find an acceptable dispense process for dispensing small dots of solder paste. I currently have an auger screw automated dispense system and can not accomplish 0.010" dot sizes. In addition, stencil printing is much m

16 thou pitch parts: Use a 5 thou laser cut electropolished stencil with 0.008"x0.045" apertures and type 3 solder paste. Bridges Connecting or Partially Connecting Adjacent Leads or Lands * Excessive solder paste * Excessive component placement pre

We use a 5 mil for 16mil pitch QFPs, Make sure that the stencil has been polished. Type 3 paste. We have used lead free no-clean, lead no-clean, and water soluble lead pastes for these packages. We set the printer for a slow stroke .7 in/min. wi

Hi dwelch123, 8 mils seems a bit thick to me. I would normally go 6 or 5 mil for fine pitch such as this. One other area to check is the the snap off. Are you using the slow snap off or just lowering the board right after print? If so you should

Russ asks good questions and I think Chunks pretty much nailed it. Aspect ratio (aperture width/stencil thickness) s/b 1.2 minimum (I like 1.5 if I can get it). If your aperture width = lead width (.008"), yours is 1. Tough to get consistent paste r

I'm having trouble printing leads on a fine pitch part. The lead is only .008". I'm using a DEK 265 with metal squeegee and using WS200 multicore solder paste.The stencil is laser cut and polished. I've experimented with different pressures and diffe
