I just noticed that you mention 2-5mm off, that is huge! It would seem to me that there is an external force here to move a part that far. Things such as a heavy air stream that for some reason is really hitting this part, something on the PCB unde

I've never heard of this before. If your solder paste is at the correct temperature, and your process is under control you should have an acceptable print the first time. This sounds like a terrible waste on time and paste. Set up a DOE to prove tha

Good ol'Wenesco. That's one of my old products they have in their advertising. The tricky part about dip process is in the fluxing. Spray fluxing a populated board from the bottom looking up can be a challenge. You'll notice the areas you missed
