Best Presents Webinar on Metal vs Plastic Printing of Solder Paste-A Comparison

Estimated reading time: 1 minute

BEST Inc. announces the first in 2016 series of webinars entitled “Metal vs plastic film adhesive-backed stencils for rework-a performance comparison”.  This will be held on Wednesday, March 9, 2016 from 12:00pm to 12:40pm CST (1PM EST/10AM PST).

The consistent printing of solder paste in a rework project is key to a high yield. This is especially true when the pitches are small (0.50mm or less) or the density of leads and neighboring devices are high. In this webinar, the types of methods for the printing of solder paste in rework will be reviewed. The results of a recent study comparing the stainless steel metal stencils to their flexible film counterparts will be revealed.

At the end of the prepared webinar, there will be an open Q/A session. Participants will get a copy of the PowerPoint slides and samples of flexible film stencils of their own design. Those not attending will not be sent the materials.

Alex Conley from BEST Inc. reported, “This is the first in a series of webinars for 2016 in which we want to layout some teaching materials that we typically do not talk about. Bob Wettermann, one of our instructors, will be giving this first talk".

Registration for this free event, with a limited number of web connections available, can be found here.
