I was wondering some input on what to use for measuring height on our solder paste for SMT placement. Is there a place to buy a machine or a scale in which you can use? I know in the past I have used a laser scope at another facility but where I am n

Hi Mark, There are many tools available for measuring solder paste height. Most machines use laser as the basis for inspection while others use structured white light. If simple height and width inspection is all that is required, you can look int

We hear you. If it's not broken, why fix it? Right? Well intentioned, but not very educated customers seems to be part of the bane of existance of process engineers at contractors. First, as a previous poster said, paste height is an improper mea

1.67 always on the sample boards measured. This is very fast and pretty good measurement for a paste dispense control. Boards do not stand out-side for long times. Inspect the height for critical components only, in the initial stages. Once your Cpk

Are you using HASL PCB's? Try measuring a bare board and compare.

When you measure "solder paste heigth of 7 & 8 mils using a 5.0 mils stencil," are you measuring the top of a flat brick? Sometimes if you snap-off the stencil too fast, the paste touching the stencil walls form peaks along the edge of the brick that
