Solder paste stencil is very cheap, but it determines soldering joint quality of PCBA.
Usually SMT factories (OEM/EMS) outsource solder paste stencil to external suppliers with Gerber data plus their requirements, the increasing NPI trend brings heavy workload & even quality risks (rework, shipment delay, lost orders, compensation) for SMT factories.
Stencil Designer converts traditional human inspection of aperture design from external house to intelligent/automatic way with powerful checks, which not only increases work efficiency of SMT process engineers, but also guarantees high quality aperture design for stable stencil quality.
Stencil Designer converts traditional human inspection of aperture design from external house to intelligent/automatic way with powerful checks, which not only increases work efficiency of SMT process engineers, but also guarantees high quality aperture design for stable stencil quality.
Stencil Designer builds in dozens of checking rules (area ratio, aspect ratio, spacing, distance to via hole, …), which enables SMT process engineers to perform automatic checks for typical errors of aperture design.
With the digitalized aperture library, you could compare your aperture design with the past design, and you could also compare different revisions of your products.
Intelligent learning technology allows you to easily convert your past experience to digitalized aperture library, and you could accomplish the conversion of your years’ stencil design within 1-3 days.
Stencil Designer will intelligently assign apertures for those packages available in centralized library, it just takes seconds to accomplish assignment even the total pads quantity of a new aperture is more than 10,000.
Stencil Designer comes with flexible aperture pattern creation function, it contains plenty of pattern templates and allow end-users to select & fine-tine them easily; moreover it supports DXF graphic import/export for special aperture design.
Stencil Designer comes with automatic processing & optimization approaches for special pads (thermal, common shared, test points …), safe distance to via holes, step generation & etc.
Only senior engineers could manage the centralized knowledgebase library, all other engineers just apply them for new products. The manufacturing team could review top n defects, and make continuous improvement related to stencil apertures.
For big organization with worldwide sites/factories, global deployment with centralize management team allow you to manage best practice for worldwide manufacturing sites; it not only allows you to minimize business for current business, but also enable the possibility of business ramp up needs.
Stencil Designer records aperture usage for every product, it allows you to trace all applied products if there is a risky aperture.
It supports major EDA CAD & Gerber data in the industry, step-by-step flowchart simplifies the usage of software.
Stencil Designer also supports intelligent panelization & cooling plate stencil, and could output stencil Gerber with template for laser cutting purpose.
This innovation not only ensures stable stencil quality to minimize business risk, but also increases work efficiency & relieves work pressure for SMT process engineers.
“I was impressed by Vayo NPI tool, it is really world class solution in the industry!”
Senior Vice President
“We started with Vayo beginning Year 2009 and has not been turning back since then. Vayo’s way of restlessly pursuing their software excellences has impressed most of us.”
Head of Innovation Centre
“From the selection of Vayo solution on the year of 2007, we are able to support these data source whatever we receives what kind of data from new customer, and then quickly complete placement programming.”
CEO, IPC Board Director
“We have been impressed with the product capabilities, their communication and commitment to supporting their products is truly world class.”
Vice President
“By introducing Vayo’s intelligent software tool it is now possible for operators to perform data conversion requiring little skill, while reducing the work time required to a fifth of what it was.”
General Manager
“The accelerator function could help us a lot on component placement orientation, we don’t need to do mapping Gerber file and check placement orientation one by one any more.”
GPEO-M PE (SMT programmer)
“From years of experience with DFT and CAD SW’s, VayoPro-Test Expert is the best. It is fast, accurate and easy to use. Its DFT report is very comprehensible for our customers. This is why we choose VayoPro-Test Expert.”
Test Development Manager
“Very intuitive and user-friendly, you can match parts and pds visually and new pd can be created easily. Part Data Editor and Parts Verification ensure every location has correct part, size and orientation. Highly recommended!”
SMT engineer
“Communication is important for every filed, good conversation shall bring joyful experience, Vayo is such company we worked with.”
Sr. Manufacturing Engineer
“We did comprehensive evaluation & comparison on industry solutions, and we are amazing to see those bright spots in Vayo solution and the professionalization of Vayo team.”
Engineering Director
“Accelerator allowed us to reduce a lot the quantity of mistakes in the projects and the time required for their preparation. This is undoubtedly a useful solution for the companies who value their time.”
Production Director
“User friendly software, excellent responds upon any query related to DFM Expert and SMT expert also a software that can be tailored to suit our needs.”
