So, you toss whatever is on the stencil every 8 hours. Correct? How long has it been on the stencil? * If that particular paste has been on the stencil for 8 hours, we'd agree to toss it too. * If paste has been on the stencil for less than 8 hour

Welcome Jimmy Let's mince words to help focus on the issues. When you say "QFP area solder paste shifted," do you mean: * Paste printed on land pattern perfectly, but moves after printing. * Paste printed off the land pattern, even though the stenci

Any one have experience of MyData paste jet printing? I don't ave chance to take a look at Apex but it can reduce the paste, no stencil required and paste volume control by programming.

Hi,davef, thanks for your concern. The condition was the pasted printed off with around 0.8~0.9mm from the land pattern. This will easy observe at QFP area. At fiducial, the stencil seens aligned accurately. Once solder bridge happend, its easy to

this would be meaniung that somewhere in your documantation it should have spec called "repeatability" what this means is that when the vision aligns the stencil/board, the board will always be within "x" amount of the njominal xy "T" position, some
