Your points are all valid. This is probably a service that the component distributers should provide. The reason I am harping on this issue is because I beleive is is possible to add several hundred part numbers to your pick and place on line inven

The assembly process involves activity before you get to reflow. Reflowing is the easy part. Putting paste down and placing parts in wet paste is the terrifying part. Benchtop reflow ovens can be a real handy tool for small production but with the g

Dr. Lou, I wouldn't recommend the Quad QSP series. A stated before it's old tech, and the feeders are junk. If your looking at Tyco (Quad), they have a new Mirae 1025P platform. It's very competitive performance/price against Assembleon and the li

I once had a forced convection oven (insert brand here)...and the top 220VAC heater (reflow zone) had shorted to the frame ground, blowing the branch line fuses. THe machine had no idea the heater was out because the lower heater was heating the upp

We have been using Contact System SMT placement machines since 1992 and have been constantly impressed with the performance of their machines, their service and overall attitude. We currently have three of their machines and I cannot say enough good

Hi, Actually we're looking for a new reflow oven regarding lead-free process and higher capacity production. We have an opportunity for a second hand Electrovert Omniflo-7 (nitrous ready) that respect our budget. My questions are: Does anyone ha

Hi SMT Engr With a double-header connector do you mean Double Level Right Angled Header Connector. If so there is a big difference in heat sinking capacity between the two rows, as where the pins of the top connector absorbes twice as much heat as t

Rob, I don't have the time to do the research and prove my points. What I know is from 20+ years studying the competition. Any Fuji saleman would tell you that based on the original post the AIM platform is the better choice. Bigger board, more fe
