The Mydata machine is very cool. It is a bit slow but is perfect if you want to do small prototypes. But I don't think a manager that spouts crapulants like that will buy a machine like this. Too forward thinking for his brain.

They make manual printers that fit 29X29 inch stencils. We use one every day. It's an old Svecia model.

I have virtualy no experience with placing bottom side components. We have a new board coming that will have a few R's & C's bottom side. Can anyone give oppinion on dispensing glue dots vs. applying adheasive with a stencil ? thanks

Oh,I consider the process is wrong,it is stencil print paste-mount-reflow -apply glue-reflow,then wave solder. it must pass twice reflow,also the first reflow profile is different and the second .

Try a typical Stencil Cleaner with Glycol ether mix as probably solder resist residue depositing back onto the pads during levelling. Cheers Greg

Sorry if that sentence there was not really clear. I meant: don't to try to 'revive' old paste or paste that has been on the stencil for a very long time using fresh paste.

Hi Jorge, The success of such production purely depends on process control. One needs to first understand the board layout in detail, and evaluate any critical components for their temperature handling capabilities. Remember, you are dealing with com

Glossy/Matte & Plating). 2. Select Solder Paste according to Your Customer or In-House Specifications which is compatible for expected Process. 3. Use Chemical Etch / Electro Polished Stencil with proper Aspect Ratios (AR=>1.5) & Area Ratios(ArR=>0.6

Thanx for all your recomendations, we already ask for a 3D SPI and help us well, we are asking for a ultrasonic stencil cleaner. By the way how do you deal with the 'head in pillow' defects? is there a solder paste alloy / profile issue?
