Does anybody have a source for jigs/tanks for a manual dip operation? We are stuck conformally coating PCBs manualy and the volumes do not justify us buying a 100k automated machine. there for we have to manually dip the pcb in a silicon based coatin

Insertion isn't enough. You also need cut and clinch for axial, radial, and dip components.

Common methods to replate components are: * Barrel plating http://www.finishing.com/Library/zemo/barrel.html * Hot solder dipping - MIL-F-14072 M258 Certainly you can do this yourself by dipping the component leads into a solder pot containing lead

Yes, we have an old Universal axial and they still offer independent machines for axial, radial and DIP components, but I do not have the floor space for that. Some offer "odd form" insertion machines (Juki, Hanwha, Cenncorp)which is the direction I

Clearly someone from the equipment side will explain to me why this is an oversimplification, but what is the difference between providing support to the purchaser of second hand equipment and the guy that bought it new, assuming they're paying the s

We don't have any automated machines (UIC) that insert anything into holes larger than our terminals, so about 0.050" is as big a hole we ever have to use before we've plugged them with something. Since we also do a fair amount of Man-U-Sert (yes, yo

Hi All, We leadform components for our assemblies in house and have been tinning the leads using a dip methood by hand into a solder pot. by just handling the components during the tinning and cleaning process we are at times damaging the parts/lea

Hi J_Dub (Joe), Thanks for the input. Sounds like some fairly densely populated through hole assemblies. 100 solder joints per board is up to 50 parts per board (I know you may have DIP's so it could be less than 50). 24 boards in a panel x 50 par

I'm not the Asymtek expert on this subject but you have to run a ROI study. When you buy a system you have to look at how much time you are spending on masking. If every job is a one board special, then you may be better off spraying on a coating. Ho
