I've got a crazy idea that I think might just work, so I need you guys to shoot it down. We will have an in-line wash with a 24" wide belt in our new facility. I'm thinking we might be able to run our 22" screens through this wash instead of using

Well we actually bought a used 3AV system. Been running with no problems at all for a while now. We also already had a 3Z system that has not fared so well. We have replaced both the Y motors, 3 of the 4 Z motors, belts, pulleys, PCB's, spindles...et

I'm with Chris' approach as a first effort. If you don't have any luck, consider using a high (reflow)temp solder paste for the first pass reflow, and your standard solder paste for the second pass refow. Years ago I had a similiar challenge with an

Actually the opposite will happen. A thinner board will heat up faster than a thicker board. That aside, it sounds like you don't have any thermal profiling equipment, do you? This is probably a very good investment if you don't. Take all/most of

I just ran into a reflow profiling problem with a new assembly that we are processing in SMT. There is a cluster of six or so electrolytic caps that measure approx. .710" wide by .660" tall. They are spaced .100" or so apart. When I run a profile, t

Pyramax 150 is a low cost newer version of the Paragon 150, the Paragon is a newer version of the VIP. The VIP is great for lead free (as confirmed to us by BTU, who told us it was pointless upgrading that particular oven to a Pyramax). You may nee

The only issues I have had in the past with the shuttle are 1. The transport conveyor into the machine was not aligned correctly causing pickup issue from the belt. 2. Operators not correctly loading parts in trays or updating the qty's, this meant

We are designing a new in-line inpsection station for PCBAs and I am a little confused about how to interpret two the Mech. Interface standards in SMEMA 1.2 (items 5 and 6). What is exactly meant by "maximum gap"? Does this get at the distance betw

Hi, Don't diving people put lead weight belts on them to hold them under the water. What metal do they use now, or are they still using lead. What about fishermen, do they still use lead sinkers on the fishing line like I saw people do when I was a
