Yes nano coating giving the good printing, but the stencil tension is very important for the life, 1st ensure the stencil tension...

Hello, Can anybody tell me what is the life span of a stencil? How many stokes on the stencil is the maximum count to have PREDICTIVE maintenance on the stencil.Thanks

Well the stencil in question have shield components. And this stencil sometimes doesn't even reach 10,000 strokes.As compared with stencil that does not have shield components, the life span seems to be lesser considering that same squeegee, print pr

I've spoken with a number of Engineers about this subject and there didn't seem to be a consensus number. In my own experience, I found that we were replacing the stencils after approximately 30,000 print strokes. In my predictive maintenance spreads

Use nano-coating and your stencil will last a-hunnit-fiddy-million cycles. Yessur.... In reality I cant say that I have ever seen a worn out stencil. Damaged and dinged, but never worn out.

Of course I forgot to mention that the number will vary based on the type and thickness of stencil that you're using, type of squeegees, board support, print pressure, and speed.

IPC-7525 does a good job of giving guidelines for designing stencils, including stepped stencils

Does anyone know of a company {may be Canadian} that makes stencils from a non-metal material?

Is there a cheap and effective method for stencil cleaning? Getting a equipment is out of the question.

1.- Clean bottom and top stencil with a cloth/alcohol at same time.Pay special attention to fine pitch locations. 2.- Clean again bottom stencil side .To prevent any residual of solder 3.- Blow air with a air gun under the stencil to remove the solde
