Our MPM UP100 is not slowing the pcb carriage as it is brought under the stencil. The result is that the carriage jolts the machine heavily when it is fully loaded. The hall effect vane sensor half way along the rear rail is working correctly. The le

Hi Shriram, Are you saying that there is a trace running between the pads for this 0603 capacitor? If so, this design may be causing a gasketing issue between the stencil and the PCB. The uneven height prevents the stencil from sitting flat on the PC

Thermal pads located underneath leadless devices require a 50% reduction in the stencil aperture.

I have been having the same problem with the LLP. I have three stencil I have done reduction on. The first I went by the manufacturing recommendations. The last two I have done more reducing for the thermal pad. The last one was at a 20% reduction an

I have come across a rash of failed assemblies that have 0805 capacitors and resistors, bottom side glued, wave soldered and washed. Trouble shooter reported touching up the solder joints on a few areas and the boards would pass test. I had a look a

1.- Clean bottom and top stencil with a cloth/alcohol at same time.Pay special attention to fine pitch locations. 2.- Clean again bottom stencil side .To prevent any residual of solder 3.- Blow air with a air gun under the stencil to remove the solde

The best suggestion one can offer is to view the archive section of this site. It is full of discussions, suggestions, advertising, claims, counter-claims, etc. Just search under the words �stencil cleaning�. Mike Konrad www.aqueoustech.com konrad

Sorry fellas -disagree. We only clean our stencils in the ultrasonic machine at the end of the run. If the same pcb is up the next day we clean them by hand. We use Electrolube SSS and the used rolls from the in line under stencil cleaner. Wipe the

This question is regarding stencil design: I am having voids under QFN TI P/N LMZ20502SILT. I have attached component pic. Signal pin is 18X16 mils. Center pads are 31 mil sq. Initially I had stencil done with one mil per side reduction on signal pad

Your problem is not the 0.4 pitch. Your problem is the manual cleaning. Manual cleaning will only remove the solder paste from the surface of the stencil. What's more, manual cleaning will force additional contamination into the 0.4 pitch apertures
