One thing a lot of people don't know is that the small X motor on MY machines have carbon brushes in them. If you do not replace the brushes before they wear out it trashes the motor.

Update - Solved On talking with BTU they mentioned that if the conveyor is always running full speed then cleaning out the motor brush area with compressed air will cure it. I'm guessing that the carbon dust had encroached onto the encoder. A good b

Greetings All, Anybody out there experiencing white residues after cleaning? We currently use a batch cleaner to clean water soluble fluxes. this cleaner makes its own DI water by means of carbon and resin tanks. After cleaning there are residues

Sorry about the non SMT post, but I figured that there might be someone with a similar experience out there. We have been having a tough time cleaning the conveyor chains in our wave solder machine. We have been cleaning them in a self cleaning oven,

what I have usually found although not from wave conveyor chains but from racing motorcycles is that binding is caused by wear and bending and not dirt unless it is excessive to the point that you can actually see the dirt that is binding it. When t

Recommended procedure for soldering stainless steel [Atlas Steels Australia]: * Surfaces must be clean and free of oxidation. * A rough surface improves adherence of the solder, so roughening with grinding wheel, file or coarse abrasive paper is reco
