| I am experiencing a wave-soldering problem with a leaded capacitor - too much solder above the board!! The capacitor lead is .020" dia. and the hole size is .038". This only occurs on the negative lead of the component. The capacitor is also axi

| Has anyone seen/used these yet? They seem to have lower coefficient of friction for release of paste and less wear and tear as well as conforming to the board better (plastic has better memory than stainless). Also there is no mesh so a larger ima

Zulfiqar, The company that makes these stencils is a Canadian company named KJ Marketing (I'll paste a link to the web site in this message). It sounds pretty interesting. I've communicated with a few people that have used these stencils and the

| What is the level of interest in bulk feeding cpassive devices, caps & resistors, 0402,0603,0805? The component mfgs. tell me in 3 years 40% of the passive caps will be bulk fed. Their is currently about a 10% cost savings with bulk over tape & r

We are in the process of validating Silicon 1C55 (thermal cure) conformal coating over Alpha LR725 solder paste. I am looking for anyone who may be using this process, or has been exposed to someone who is doing this process. Our concern is with the

| WHAT SHOULD THE RATIO BE OF STENCIL APERATURE TO PAD TO GET GOOD QUALITY RESULTS. BY THAT I MEAN, A MINIMM OF SOLDER BALLS, AND LITTLE TO NO BRIDGING, SHORTS, ETC.. | RIGHT NOW WE ARE USING A 1:1 RATIO, BUT ARE INVESTIGATING REDUCING THE APERATU
