Hi everyone: Our company is trying out immersion white tin for fine pitch assembly with what I would call mixed results. Reflow solder looks very good, but wave solder looks somewhat grainy (this may not be a problem in actuality). We had dewettin

Hi, C.K. Let's assume that your stencil's thickness is in a range 4-6 mil or by other words the height of the solder paste on a pads is the same (close enough to reality) Therefore, for pad's width more than 20 mils(as well as pitch between pads) th

| We are looking to automate the paste printing portion of our SMT process. We are looking at used equipment from DEK and MPM from 1994 onward.(DEK 260 & 265 MPM AP20 & AP27) Does anyone have some feedback or concerns with any of these machines? Does
