I also never heard of that. Even if you measured the stencil tension what would be the spec be and how would that even relate to quality. Other than the stencil just flopping around I doubt that minor changes in screen tension are going to change any

| In the early days, we used screens made of stainless steel or polyester. Sometimes - after A period - the tension was not good, because A wire was broken. | Later on we started to us metal stencils, glued in A polyester screen. even than we had som

We want to know why people would want to measure stencil tension

What kind of paste printing defects do you get from having the stencil tension: * Too high? * Too low?

Oh, more money than ... Then just go buy a tensionorometer like: Protec STG-series tension gauge http://www.protec.jp We have no relationship, nor receive benefit from the company referenced above.

to prevent solder paste printing defects

For the same reason they would buy a viscometer and an automatic paste mixer.

We usually matched the value with the thickness of the paste or stencil. If the lead doesn�t dip into the paste it will not be soldered.
