Most paste supplier recommendations seem to work fine in the locale of the printer. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for recommendations on the range of control for temperature and humidity in a assembly shop.

You need an illuminance meter. We used these on the set of the Spice Girl videos. Search Yahoo for dozens of manufacturers. Use OSHA specs for setting up your factory - but aren't you in China? Not sure if they have an OSHA over there.

In that case, one 40 watt bulb should do. Hung very high from the roof and no shine on the floor.

If I remember correctly the standard we used was something like 350 candlepower at the work surface, and it can be measured with a standard photographic lightmeter

Hi mates, thanks for the input from everyone, that standard shared with us (courtesy from Steve Thomas), ties in with what the majority have to say. Cheers!
