Standardized Management of SMT Quality Control Solder Paste Storage, Thawing and Stirring

One of the core links in SMT quality control is the full lifecycle management of solder paste. From refrigerated storage, stepwise thawing, manual/mechanical stirring to online use, any deviation in each action will cause batch defects such as printing misalignment, insufficient solder, and solder bridging. Jia Jinyuan solder paste requires constant temperature storage at 2~8℃, thawing time of no less than 4 hours, and stirring for more than 120 seconds without residual bubbles.
