01

DFM Review

Design for Manufacturability

Every Gerber, BOM, and assembly drawing reviewed before a single stencil is cut. We flag tombstoning risks, insufficient courtyard clearances, and thermal relief issues before they cost you a spin.

Stencil Cut

Laser Precision Apertures

Electroformed nickel stencils laser-cut to aperture tolerances that keep paste volume consistent across the entire panel. Nano-coating applied as standard on all stencils.

Paste Print

Closed-Loop Squeegee Control

Servo-controlled print pressure with real-time paste height feedback. Every board receives SPI immediately after print — no boards advance with marginal paste deposits.

3D Solder Paste Inspection

100% optical 3D measurement of every paste deposit. Volume, height, area, and offset measured against Gerber nominal. Boards with any out-of-spec deposit are reprinted, not reworked.
