Hi, I'm working at a very small electronics assembly firm and we need to get a better thermal profile of our reflow and solder wave ovens. Our firm is part of a larger firm that was set up to help handicapped people find work in the Netherlands. Yo

A couple of things: Does the cap break if you try to remove it with hot air? If not, than you are breaking the caps do to mechanical stress. We have had similar issues. I don't think your board is suffering from mechanical stress from depaneling o

Make sure you fully understand your own products requirements. How many components of each feeder type they will require? How many Feeder slots those feeders will require? How different each product is and how that will affect changeover times - whic

Hello all. Thanks for taking up your time to read my post. In this age of questing for ever-more-efficient circuit designs, I have been presented with an anachronistic design problem: I need to keep a roughly constant load on a steam-powered turbine
