| Hello all, | | I read about Steve's headache a few articles back and I'm really interested by his tip. However, I'm still wondering why square apertures release solder paste better than round ones. For the same volume of paste, the surface area

| | | We are having a process related problem with pullup resistors on a controller card which has a I960 micro-processor. | | | The controller monitors signal inputs and it's own resources then blinks a LED to indicate its working. The problem is th

If it was only 1 or 2 components on a reel that were backwards, I would lean more likely the cause just being the component was wrong direction in Tape from factory. Not much you can do from a Pick & Place perspective, generally.. Most machines use

As Evtimov mentioned, it will be dependent on package. It will also be dependent on the specifics of your machines so there is no universal "good" value. You will need to experiment to find the best values for your equipment and components. I would

Six Sigma has been invaluable here at my contract manufacturing group. We have brought out defect rate from a monthly average of 32% to 3 or less percent. Essentially, our inspectors 100% inspect every assembly in final inspection. I constructed a

| Hey Ya'll! | | Have any of you ever worked with one of V-Tek's "Economax" tape and reel machines? The biggest thing I'm curious about is the type of cover tape that these machines use. It's something they call P.S.A. (Pressure Sensitive Adhesive)c
