Dear TechNetters:
Continuing with the theme of insufficient solder. Have a student with a similar problem. They have a few SMT components that are very large (in relation to the majority of others on the PCB). These larger components then have insufficient solder necessitating too much touchup/rework to be cost effective. Is there a way to increase the quantity of solder paste being applied to these specific components using a stencil other than increasing the aperture? Any other ideas?
Thanks,
