| I've just come back from Nepcon West and I'm just as confused about AOI as when I left. Is anyone out there really happy with their equipment and getting the results they expected? I would like to know about programming time and equipment reliabili

Jeff, my experience with both turret-style placement machines and split-axis type machines is that the turret-style generates a higher placement rate than that of a split-axis style. The fact that the axes are integrated under a fixed placement site

Hi Jeff, I didn't have experience with Pansert MV2-E, but I have MV2-F. The machine running in high speed, but very noisy. I have other machine Sanyo TCM-3000 Same speed with MV2-F. Sanyo is original design turret system, a stable mounting machine,

| | We process both tin/lead plated boards and gold plated boards in our surface mount group. I have used Sn62/Pb36/Ag2 solder paste on all gold plated boards to help prevent gold scavaging. To reduce the amount of different solder pastes we have t

| Hi Folks, | This is my first surface mount board, so I asked our assembly house for some tips. They said only passives on the bottom side-preferably no smaller than 0805, 0603 only if I have to. I would think that an SOT-23 would be OK on the botto

Dave, Thanks for the interest. Basically, we looked at this project as a straight swap, i.e. printing the glue on the PCB using a Dek screen printer instead of our current method of dispensing glue using a Camalot dispensing machine. For the PCB we

Finished profiling this morning for a particularly obstinate board. Couldn't raise the nozzle as many of you suggest, and SRT promotes, because of dense population around every associated rework part. However, we did get good removes (TC'd and verifi
