As in screen printing, the solder paste is printed on the PCB by pushing the paste through the apertures of a stencil with a rubber squeegee.

The stencil and the PCB to be printed are aligned by a computer-aided optical measuring system. Thus, the solder paste can be applied very precisely.

The stencil printer E-1 of EKRA AUTOMATISIERUNGSSYSTEME GMBH is used for stencil printing.

The following film of the Bosch Company presents the stencil printing process.
