Honda, Prnting Glueisn't as difficult as it sounds, as long as you have the right stuff and a good set up. It also depend's on what your going to be placing. If your just doing 0603, 0805 and 1208 than you really only need an 8 thou or 10 thou stenc

Sal, I kind of assume you have paste there to start with... Because sometimes the edge components do not have paste applied caused by the bottom support in the screen printer etc. And if that is the case for one direction, the other direction applie

Paddesign, aperture size and stencil thickness determine the amount of solder for your joint. Once you have found suitable parameters you need to control the volume of your paste deposit which is influenced by printer settings, paste condition, stenc

Adam, Did some work on this a bit back via some good old Taguchi DOE and like Dave(the guru)F say's your component terminations is a big factor but I also foundthat the amount of flux you put on as well as the preheat's has an effect, generally we f

I've run up against the same problem that I know many of us in the industry face; our management wants to obtain a "world class" level of production. This has come up before, and I've looked through several responses dealing with ppm (dpmo), failure

Steve, This is a good, well repeated, not identified by IPC yet issue. I, and some others in industry, for years have proven and recommended smaller pads for various devices. I, and some others in industry, use 0402 pads for 0603 device types. IPC o

Hi Murad, like with many other questions it�s hard to judge without seeing the effect. Assuming that this site you�re talking about is well equiped with knowledge and that they handle their processes normally to everybody�s satisfaction it�s obvious

Andy, I have been "evaluating" some AOI systems. However, some of these are actually SAOI (Semi Automatic Optical Inspection), which is not a problem if that is what fits your process and budget. You can buy a high end system complete with many cam
