Hello, I would like to design the thermal reliefs/pads of my through-hole components. I would appreciate any info, doc or link about how design them (dimensions, slit width, circular or square, etc). Thanks a lot and best regards, Javi

Stencil printer

Electronics Forum | Wed Mar 03 07:08:44 EST 2004 | jpa

Does anyone have an opinion, good or bad, regarding the mpm ap24x? I've only ever done manual printing and have little clue about automated printers. I'm pretty new to this whole arena and any suggestions would be much appreciated.

AP24X is old model. Some parts are getting hard to come by. Check if the vision system is Cognex 2000 or 5000 and what the computer is. It may have been upgraded. Otherwise, its a good printer.

That hand held cleaner is 10K+. I have used one before. It works OK on paste, but doesn't do a thing for epoxy. 10 grand buys a lot of wipes and elbow grease.

We use a SAWA to clean our stencils and it performs quite well on solder paste but not so great with epoxy. Operators find the machine very easy to use and like mentioned before it takes up minimal space and has a lower intial and operating cost.

We had problems with paste drying out when opened for more than a couple of days. We solved this problem by ordering paste in 250 gram quanities. This is about a third of a jar in the same size container.
