I-Extruder experience?

[jan.didden]

Does anyone have any experience with the I-Extruder: I-EXTRUDER - Airless Solder Paste Dispenser with Pick & Place Feature .

I have started to use it, initial results with a cheap SMD oven and low temp solder appear good. Still stuggling with the minute amount of solder to dispense for each pad.

Would appreciate to exchange experiences.

Attached 1st try. You can see that in several places there was too much solder. I have to play with the various variables on the extruder, like drop size, syringe opening and 'retract' duration.

But it looks that after some trial and error it should be possible to make pretty good SDM stuff at home!

Hi Jan,


Have you had any further experience to report after using this some more?

Cheers,
