Yes, car rims (and brass tubas)! You finally helped me get to the bottom of this expensive issue. We fired the culprit. It's the same guy that was using the ultrasonic stencil washer to clean car parts on night shift. It might be snake oil, I don

I used to collect mine in a 50 gal drum and take them to the scrap dealer. If he classifies it as brass or copper you can get a good return. Most leads are nickel and tin plated brass. Most dealers stick a magnet on it and tell you its not worth much

I have a recent design (1 component side only) that calls for 2 surface mounted antenna's (brass plated) to be mounted on a PCB. The problem arises when the PCB is 18x11.25 and has 15 to 20 PCB's in the pallet (IE weight, fixturing to hold the anten

I have used Kapton stencils before. The only issue was they don't last nearly as well as the steel ones. For rework if Circuit medic had the stencil in stock we would buy those. If not there was a stencil shop that would make them from Kapton. I do

Oh, the CSM only has one XY offset for each feeder rail. If you don't like it, you can teach any particular feeder location. The crazy thing is the teach camera is an inch in front of the heads (-25 mm Y) so you can't put the teach camera over the

Splicing for us has been a rough go as we haven't really found a tool that works well/fast. We have a few different machines = different feeders. They all react different to a splicing "style". The best so far is a crimp tool that crimps a brass s
