Abstract

Stencil cleaning is a necessary operation step in solder paste printing process. Frequent cleaning operation usually leads to an excessive waste of cleaning agency and increased standby time. This paper proposes an approach for controlling the cleaning operation through variable stencil cleaning threshold sequences. A downtime ratio model is established to obtain the sequences, and a case study is given to show how to acquire the threshold sequences and makes decisions of stencil cleaning.
