Hello! My name is Nicole and I'm new here :-) I hope you could help me...we recently bought an Ekra X5, and I was informed that it could dispense paste on the stencil on her own, using a cartridge that is placed near the squeegees. Can anyone tell me

Thanks Dave for the reply. I understand there is + and - to each process. We have been doing v-score for a long time and for the most part it has work for us. As PCAs become more dense and components are squeezed to use most of the PCB space, it now

Hi Swag, Thanks for the suggestions. I did perform a changer teach on both changers successfully which resolved minor mis-alignment issues but not this problem. You can see in the photo that there are two open holes (5&6)and it is trying to drop a n

I've got good news and bad news: GOOD: I love Ag2 solder it's the best, most well behaved, reliable, couldn't ask for a better general purpose solder. BAD: It's leaded. I'd be concerned about embrittlement issues when soldering to gold that was 10 t

UIC'S newer software has a category you can change to force a part to the back during optimization for this very reason. I think it's done in placement list. Example: A part coded 1000 will place after a part coded 500. I don't recall what it is

What kind of epoxy do you guys use for repairing PCB pads? We've been using the stuff you can get from CircuitMedic, but, it's rather expensive, and is usually one-time-use (as you don't use a whole lot of it). It's a two-part epoxy, so, once you'v
