Dear SMTnetters, I've been told to have a look at finding a machine that could mill the leads of all PTH components to a certain height on an assembeled and soldered PCB. PCBs should be inserted in one side of the machine and come out milled on the

Thank you Mr Fish and Operator. All these machines seem to be manually controlled though. At least it gives me an idea of what is in the market.

You also need to understand when using something like a Q Cutter you should resolder the board after you cut! Your alternative is to get someting that when you put your part in it cuts and clinces the part. Contact Systems makes machines that present

I have done this in a past life. In my mind this is a step backwards. If all of your parts are placed by hand it will work.You will need to cut at the top of the solder to keep the leads form bending If any parts are auto inserted you will need to c

YV100, easy... YV112 uses a dual work-area, dual gantry machine in which the gantry does X and the PCB-table does Y movements. Also each gantry can only work on one PCB work-area and can pick form only one side of the machine. Basically you have two

Durstone is relatively easy to machine. use a 4 fluted end mill and keep the speed down on the mill. sounds like your RPMs are to high.

Davef, Thank you. I wonder if you have ever faced with concrete layer thickness selection for SMT shops? All I have found refers to metal treatment shops (primarily milling & drilling). 6" concrete is thick enough for them to stabilize milling machi

Hi Again, As I was thinking about this, I remembered another unconventional way that I was told about from one of the starters of this technology. Now I don't think anyone would use this technique anymore, yet here it is: Press Cutting and Pushing

I am specing out a desk-top type SMD proto-typing and reworking machine for low volume application. Capabilities to 10 mill pitch on a 160 lead quad pack are required. Any suggestions? Thanks, Matt

Try switching to a polymer nozzle. Your machine manufacturer may sell them on any machine shop can mill you one. Also check to see if your pick and place had a puff off function. Some older machines have a mechanical adjustment on the mac valve used
