Solder Mask

2008-01-21 by T.S.E. scrl Patrick BAYARD

Hello,

For SolderMask with Inkjet printer, you can see form Printar 
http://www.all4-pcb.us/printar.htm

The ink for solder mask is appromatevely the same for nomenclature just the color green or white.

But the viscosity is so so so hight, you can turn the pot and the ink not go out, very big marmelade, i think no possibility to put in inkjet cartridje

Special ink for solderMask, is necessacery go to 250� centigrade, for resist solder and automatik solder machine, reflow.

Also, special ink for solder mask by "LACKWERK PETERS"
http://www.peters.de/index_e.htm

ELPEMER photoimageable is a nice system 2467 pack, but in component.
Developement in sodic soap.

For dry film solder mask: CONFORMASK by  SHIPLEY

Developement in sodic soap.

Very nice process, vacum system not necesary for amateur application, just laminate, UV insolation and develop.

For copy film, also from SHIPLEY, "DIAZO-FILM", just copy transparent film from for lazer printed and copy with UV contact  chassi.
Developpement in amonia vapor soap the same from architechture copy plant.

You have a orange transparency film, you can place and see your pad to adjust position film and make UV exposur; very strong film.
