Armin, The obvious disadvantages for an in-line printer is initial cost and flexibility for smaller shops that depnd on high mix, low volume batch builds from their printer to support multiple projects at the same time. The advantage is quality a

Dave, Nice one. I was a roadie for Men At Works' tours to the States in '82 & '83. W had a crew t-shirt printed up that had on the front the musical notation for the hook in 'Who Can It Be Now' with the words printed underneath 'Who F.....g Cares'. O

Doug, Depending on the machines in question, the release characteristics change. Most of the mechanically driven machines simply stop the vacuum by lowering the nozzle and release the stored vaccum at impact when the nozzle starts to compact back int

Marcos- BGA's and soldering manually is difficult. Typically soldering BGAs requires reflow just as a reflow oven does, so I recommend a rework station. Go to http://www.empf.org/html/empfset.htm and download Jan 2002, Dec 2001, Sep 2001, Aug 2001,

No, not as such. Nor should there be. This is not to say that the issue of making good prints is anything but absolutely vital to cost effective operations. Experts attribute 60+% of SMT soldering defects to the printing process. Properly, both J

I was wanting to know if anyone has had any luck at networking Panisonic equipment. We've purchased the Panacim package for one of our lines and have found that it was very costly and can create downtime. We are wanting the capability to download mas

I am not familiar with networking the machines in question. What type of OS do the machines run on? How does the Panacim software network the equipment? If you only want to access all the machines offline for file transport and do not plan on using t

We would benchmark our times with the most experienced operator and them boost the time by 1/3. Example: If it takes Mary 3sec to insert the component, 3 secs to clinch and cut the leads (it is not advised to cut the leads after soldering), and 8 sec
