We are setting up a facility in China and would like to verify the resistivity reading on our Westek wash machine. The only tool we have at this time is a multimeter. The machine reads .570 Mohms and the MM reads around .25 Mohms at a probe distance

I have a strange problem with 1208 resistors flipping off placed position. I have the same reflow settings that I have used for years with the same solder paste. PAste is only a few months old and it was used just 1 week ago without problems. Some re

How far from apertures is the label supposed to go? I'd say 1 inch is plenty. 3/4 inch might be plenty also. Do you have the ability to measure paste height? I'd say place the label on one board and print two. Is there an appreciable differenc

Help!! Just got some new wave solder pallets in house. The pallets are 12 by 8 inches solid composite, with only two 1/2 inch by 1 inch spots cut out for the connectors. When they go over the wave, the solder wants to cling to the bottom of the pal

I assume your oven has a "board width" setting for every board and the conveyor width is automatically adjusted as soon as you select the profile/recipe... For the double sided reflow boards, I would set the width 1 inch (or another rounded amount)

Little off the topic of SMT production, but I am in urgent need of a 60db sma inline attenuator. Male to female @ 2.2-2.3 Ghz. Size is extremely important, I need it to be as small as possible(around 1 inch in leanth) If anyone knows where I can find

I'm not that concerned about the solderability of the motor. Our customer is concerned about the outgassing of the conformal coat effecting the motor brushes. Silicone will break down into SiO2 and SiC will result from a spark between the brushes a

Heck no, I mean we print relatively slower on complex boards, as in 1 inch/sec (25.4mm/sec), and maybe 2 inches/sec. (51mm/sec) on less complex boards. SMT is not a bottleneck in our plant and printing never the bottleneck in SMT, so I see no need t

Speaking from experience, the solder pot surface has become "wetted" so to speak, so solder will naturally wick and seek. Allow the level to go low (perhaps 1 inch plus), clean the top surface area of the solder pot as best as you can - try to remove
