Description / Abstract:
This standard is a collection of visual quality acceptability
criteria for solder paste printing.
Purpose
The purpose of this guideline document is to support the user in
the visual evaluation of the solder paste printing process, which
makes subsequent process optimizing possible.
The purpose of this guideline is not to inspect and evaluate the
quality of the solder paste. For information on the evaluation of
solder paste, see J-STD-005, Requirements for Soldering
Pastes and IPC-HDBK-005.
The purpose is not to define requirements to stencil design. For
information on stencil design, see IPC-7525, Stencil Design
Guideline.
Appendix A provides different error types and suggested
solutions are listed. The guideline is intended to help/ improve
the optimizing process for paste printing.
In the case of a discrepancy, the description or
written criteria always takes precedence over the
illustrations.
