Effect of Nano-Coated Stencil on 01005 Printing

The demand for product miniaturization,especially in the handheld device area,continues to challenge the board assembly industry. The desire to incorporate more functionality while making the p .. read more

Nano Technology Improve Critical Printing Process

The challenges of successful solder printing in the High Volume / Low Mix cell phone environment,which is linked with the continuing trend to miniaturize electronic assemblies,requires a new ap .. read more

Effect of Squeegee Blade on Solder Paste Print Quality

The solder paste deposition process is viewed by many in the industry as the leading contributor of defects in the Surface Mount Technology (SMT) assembly process. As with all manufacturing pro .. read more

Stencil Printing Transfer Efficiency of Circular vs. Square Apertures with the Same Solder Paste Volume

It is frequently noted in surface mount printed circuit board assembly that most solder defects can be traced back to the stencil printing process. In addition,continuous miniaturization trends .. read more

Effect of Board Clamping System on Solder Paste Print Quality

Stencil printing technology has come a long way since the early 80’s when SMT process gained importance in the electronics packaging industry. In those early days,components were fairly large,m .. read more

Head-On-Pillow Defect – A Pain in the Neck or Head-On-Pillow BGA Solder Defect

The head on pillow defect is becoming more common. This paper describes one such occurrence for an OEM and explains how it was dealt with. In this particular case it was solved by application o .. read more

Stencil Options for Printing Solder Paste for .3 Mm CSP’s and 01005 Chip Components

Printing solder paste for very small components like .3mm pitch CSP’s and 01005 Chip Components is a challenge for the printing process when other larger components like RF shields,SMT Connecto .. read more

Investigating the 01005-Component Assembly Process Requirements

In 2006 we conducted two formal detailed experiments on the 01005-component assembly process. Two of the most significant findings from those experiments were that a 0.003” thick stencil is req .. read more
