A quick thought:
If the losses of larger profile components are in the wave it could be due
to the amount of adhesive you can put down with your stencil.
Possibly the print pump technique [from Dek I think, maybe others] could
help here? This is a bit like dispensing paste with a printer and allows
different blob heights from a single pass.

Larry,
You don't say where you are loosing your components. Handling prior to wave
or at the wave or a combination of both?
The best smd adhesive I ever ran was an Ashai (sp) product that used to be
sold by Multicore, but it went away when Loctite took them over. In my
shear tests on this product, I would break the solder mask loose from the
PWB or would break the 1206 test resistor before the smd adhesive bond
would break. GOOD STUFF - but I have not been able to find it since
Multicore stopping selling it, and believe me I have tried.
Good luck,
Gary Camac

Subject: [TN] Bottom side SMT adhesives
Happy Friday Everyone!
We are currently stencil printing Loctite 3612 for our bottom side SMT
parts. We have trouble getting larger parts (SOL's, tantalums, etc) to stay
attached consistently. I'm just wondering what products others are using
for this process and if anyone has had the same issue.
Thanks and have a great weekend!
Larry
