Correct mesh count for your application?

• Mesh types with high mesh count and thin wire diameter have less of an open area will result in thinner deposit.
• Our mesh manufactures have work hard in researching the demands of the hybrid / LTCC world; finer lines, thinner deposit etc…listed in the chart below you will find some of the newest meshes available to accommodate these requests. Mesh counts with the finest wire diameter will have minimum obstruction to the paste flow and offers higher resolution and sharp edge definition.
