Solder Paste FIFO shelf system Red Glue FIFO process

Proper Solder Paste FIFO storage helps to:

1. Prevent Expiry: Solder paste can degrade over time, so using the oldest paste first ensures it doesn’t expire while the newer paste is still in stock.
2. Maintain Quality: Following FIFO ensures that only fresh and viable solder paste is used on the PCBA board in SMT production, leading to consistent soldering quality.
3. Optimize Storage: FIFO avoids stock piling up, reduces waste from expired materials, and ensures efficient storage space use.
4. Reduce Defects: Using old, improperly stored solder paste can lead to poor solder joints, bridging, or defects in the assembly process.
