Hi Chris, It sounds like you may have to go with your idea of a relief cut into the stencil. Are there any components that need to be printed in close proximity? Is this a high volume?I used to work at a flex house and we had a similar situation. We

Yes, i have used and experienced problems with step stencils, but these were mainly to do with the communication of the requirements for the suppier. Best plan is to talk to your stencil supplier and get them to make the suggestions on what works bes

I have an application that uses 0201 devices coupled with ceramic column grid arrays. The coplanarity of the balls is specified not to exceed 7 mils! 4 mil foil for 0201's with a selective buildup to 7mil for the ceramic. Bloody designers! Take y

Agree with MKE, some reconditioned CP6 machines would be fine for you if you want bombproof equipment and low operation cost, but no flexibilty at all, unless you have small assys with few part numbers, If you want more felxibility, GSMs are OK, easy

I dont speek Chineese. When I need support I prefer dealing with people who speak my language. I like my job. The more jobs lost to over seas companies make job market here harder to find work. Thousands of parts go into reflow ovens. So we are not t

USING CONDUCTIVE EPOXY: Epoxies do not bond well to tin or tin alloy surfaces. * For components: a silver-palladium or gold end termination is recommended. * For substrates: gold over nickel should work well. Remember epoxy is not hermetic, and ox

Arman, We introduced wireless wrist straps here on a small scale for safety related jobs such as mass lead trimming. These straps operate by the "Corona" effect which, as it turns out amounts to this: You need to drink a case of that swill to conv

What are the defects you see when the stencil is over 50 n/cm? I can't recall ever seeing a (stencil caused) defect that wasn't a dent, ding or some other physical damage, and I would have a very hard time sending back a stencil that is working fine,

DO you have an xray onsite? One suggestion is to check what you can with that machine, i know it wont be able to magnify to 200nm or something, but it will show any ESD damage to the wire bonds or any major cracks of the silicon die. P.s. Most devi
