Hello All, looking for some help from you guru's. I have several Enig boards with solderability problems. Components ranging from 0402's to ssop's. Using AIM W/S leaded solder paste, profile is beautiful and has been for years running the same produc

The "correct" answer is: Use the tests and methods that you used to qualify your solder paste in the first place. That sounds good but might not be all that practical for practicing assembly-types. Here's something that's not as good, but will give

IMO – Look into nano-coatings for your stencil and radius all square apertures This should help out with solder paste releasing from the stencil helping with insufficient solder QFN LGA aperture design, try a stencil cut with a few different apertur

Hello, I would like to ask you for help. We have problem with our Selective Solder System SEHO PowerSelective. Problem is, that Z axis is decreasing. When we start soldering, height of Z axis is correct but after each solder cycle, there is decreasin

3 Printer Area Conditions * As stated earlier, heat and humidity are damaging to solder paste. Ideally, the printing area should be maintained at 40% - 50% relative humidity and 72°- 80°F (22-26°C). In addition, no air (cool or warm) should blow dire

IPC-7525 "Stencil Design Guidelines" is a good reference document to have. Here are notes from a Tessera, (a major mBGA mfg.), study- "Application Note Solder Stencil Requirement for mBGA" The stencil aperture is to be square, equal in size to the l
