What's important in stencil printing (which differs from screen printing) is providing a consistant volume of paste at each interconnect. The process window varies in proportion to the pitch. More than 60% of all defects are related to solder depos

If you do not have a lot of TH joints there are some advantages. No boards "submarined" in solder pot on wave. You can solder the bottome side SMT parts rather than epoxy them when the parts are put down. This should reduce SMT defects and missing pa

These are all good questions. Dip fluxing is fine. Make sure you let all the remaining flux drip off the board. Letting it drip into the pot will cause a lot of spattering of hot solder � be careful. Dipping the board slowly into the pot should

Using larger pads on the corners is fairly common to improve self-alignment of BGA and CSP. For example, "9.3.2.8 Large corner pads and overprint The self-alignment of BGA or CSP can be improved through a design change. By utilizing a large board pad

SMTnet Archives used to have copious amounts of information on a pin-in-hole [e.g., pin-in-paste, paste-in-hole, etc] reflow process, but much of that appears lost with the conversion to the new and improved site format. In getting started, check:
