We are a contract manufacturer.  One of our OEM customers has completed a
design which uses ~50-75 0.016" vias in ~0.038" square lands for 0603
components, on a 0.031" board.  We have already made redesign
recommendations, but there may be a substantial (as many as several
thousand) quantity of boards that need to be assembled with this design.
Does anyone have experience with a soldering process that will yield
reliably high quality solder connections without substantial inspection and
rework given such a design?

Thanks for any comments.
