I expected that...
I have a seperate "solder paste" layer which carries apertures where the
pads are i think.
of course i also could modify the library to make another layer.
What i wonder is not so much how to find the right position, but how to
find the right amount.
How can i influence the time the dispenser is on (or the mm the screw is
operated)?
I basically have something like the drill file, that has every position of
a pad stored,
so the dispenser is already moving and positioned over the pad "like if it
would drill".
how is now the spindle lowered? (or in this case lowered and the paste
pressed out)
where and when in the software do you set things like spindle feedrate,
and depth?
thanks
