I have a pad layout that has .010" dia. with .010" spacing. Going to use a .004" foil. I know I need to over print them, but how much without causing bridging issues ? Thanks, Sr.

I have used a .013" square under these conditions. Limited run but all were good. 72 qty in 1 batch run

Hi all, what sort of magnification is fair to use when evaluating a stencil cleaner i.e. apertures. aj...

I think over printing is the best option, and I like the idea of ordering a test stencil with increasing sized apertures. Make sure you go beyond what you think will work, just so you know where line is.

If you have room try putting a small piece of tape on the bottom of the stencil right next the aperture that is giving you the problem. The added height of the tape (Kapton tape is usually about 3 mils thick) will likely give you a heavy enough depo

Good afternoon, You should use overprint technique if you have any problems with paste volume (PIH technology and mixed designs, for instance). Otherwise, it is useless. Overprint has to be made in such way so that paste would have an ability to flo

= 0.66 aperture opening to the stencil wall has been shown to provide the best transfer efficiency and repeatability of the deposited paste. Values from 0.66 to 0.8 insure a good paste release from the stencil. The biggest impact on area ratio is the

I agree that homplate is a good design, but also this could be caused by the stencil thickness and aperture size, if you are at 7-9 mils thick stencil and a 1:1 ratio on aperture size then 2 things i know of will happen, one a squishing out of past o

After a whole night's self review, I think we can term the slant/tilt as "floating 0805, yet end-terminals have acceptable solder joint formation". the width portion of the 0805 RES/CAP is (floating)elevated from the PCB pad, yet both (width) termin

Hi Dback, Yes, i'm open "dog bone" aperture for my chip component. this is to prevent solder ball issue. For fine pitch i'm opening square with full length and half width to prevent bridging. Btw, if "dog bone" is not for chip component, what is your
