Dear Fastek. For the Front panel board we are using multible ( 4 boards in one PCB. even thought the balance between the DEK printer and the placers still big 6 sec as a difference. But, may be this is a good idea for the main board? may be also it's

DB Comments on things that should be set and controlled and not adjusted are: * We agree that pot temperature should be excluded. * We'd like you to add parallelism to your list of items to exclude from CK's list. It's given that parallelism is impo

Hi BR, Are you screen printing adhesive to the bottom of the board? If so, have your stencil make put openings between the leads of the thru-hole part. SMT adhesive acts as a natural solder resist. So placing a small sliver between the pads works

I agree with Chris. Not all but SOME components definitely had to change to be able to withstand higher heat. I would watch out for some plastic connectors, possibly some active components, and definitely many electrolytic caps. Older stock compone

I have to agree with Fastek on the issue of having someone with enough experience or with proper training. Having knowledge and being flexible about tweaking the machine to make it work thats all you really need. We used to call it black magic. I use

We have issues with these also. They need to be flat to solder well. Reduce the square under the part for the heat sink and youll improve yields. That pad keeps the part lifted high while the other smaller joints reflow and partially attach. You can

I like how one of the articles mentioned the Segway. That had huge amount of hype about how the world would be changed. Then it turned out to be a scooter. I wonder if this "it" is PCBs manufactured in a printer. I think that technology is interesti

This process is going to make conventional rework, and most mods and ECOs impossible. You might be able to make some changes by patching a component across the exposed pads, but most of the circuitry will be buried. You could, of course, make speci

Good day.. anyone who have read the best guide on pb-free pcb plating?? I know immersion is the best but the storage controls sucks..easily changes color..ANYONE WITH A BETTER kNOWLEDGE ON HOW TO CONTROL? OR better plating ...enig?? why?? please. all

Dave, I'd be skeptical too, with that response! I've got a Culligan DI system installed here, and it's got it's own resistivity test meter. When the light goes red, it's time to call and get my resin changed. It's worked out pretty well here. Ba
