My question is refering to "stencil life". How accurate is this and is this something I can go by. The solder paste I am using is Kester R562, R562 specifications state that it has a 12 hour stencil life, optimal temp ranges 70-77 F, 35-65% RH. Ou

Why scrap paste if there is no degradation of performance? Do your own study to determine this.

Normally paste manufacturer specifies stencil life of a paste is 10 hours. the question is, if i run a continuous manufacturing for 40 hours, we will be adding 250 g of paste for every two hours. The addition of 250 g will be mixed with the paste whi

I would scrap it. As you said part of it is going to be old paste. All manufacturers don't recommend mixing old with new paste because you change the rheology of the paste.

FIrst, be a doubting Thomas and never trust supplier propaganda sheets, do your own testing. How often do you knead the paste? We have a standing requirement that if the paste printer is idle for 30 minutes, we have a minimum of 4 kneads before pri

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

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
