Ok,the point you appear to make is that the US brokers are selling the machines to Asian industries thus causing the job loss in the US... So the US brokers should stop selling to Asian industries to give the US industries a chance to buy inexpensive

I have a need to put many different Tape and Reel parts into trays in order to free up feeder space on my QP3. My question is does anyone know of any resources where I can specify my part dimensions and have tray stock milled out to present these pa

If you need tray dimensions, try this: http://www.devicecare.com/Default.asp?Page=Jedec You should be able to find just about any tray spec there. Finding actual trays to accomodate your part is another story. I have a box of empty trays that I don

You can say "re-flow". It's related with the process. In order to assemble a PC Board containing lots of components such as PTH (Plated Through Hole) and SMT, usually, PTH type packages and components are soldered first using wave soldering process.

I haven't heard of anybody yet who have done smt and reflow after thruhole and solder wave. Thru hole components usually have low resistence to heat and could easily burn when subjected to the 210deg-245deg.C reflow temperature. For pc boards with co

As I said, I'm new, and I've never seen the adhesive dot method. I'm certian our company will stick with paste, though, because we make our own boards (with a vertical plater no less!!!) and contamination is quite an issue. We do a fair amount of rew

I am having issues with a CS-400E that I thought I might ask if anyone has any suggestions. The machine may run fine for a while then out of the blue the cutters stop responding or start responding erratically, you have to hit the esc key after ever

The 400E has a computer on the bottom of the cabinet with a a Serial/Keyboard Card installed in it. J1 pins 19/20 are the cutters transmit/receive lines on this card, they go through a transition brd and on to the Cutter/Processor brd on the side do

Thanks Dave...it's such a good site for reworking BGA's (reballing). But what about when it comes to re-attaching the BGA onto the PCB? We are using Flextac Stencils but I found out that the apertures of their stencil is bigger than our pads for the

When it comes to re-attaching the BGA onto the PCB, we don't those very nice mini-stencils. They are very nice though. On sources for your rework stencils, try your stencil fabricator will be happy to make those very nice things for you. What's wr
