Dear all, I'm having a friendly discussion with our chief manufacturing engineer. To our PCB suppliers we specify the use of "chemical gold", imo this means we use ENIG, Our boards are all copper under the solderresist which imo further confirms we

Could anyone please help me in my evaluation of Agilent vs. Omron vs. MIRTech/YESTech AOI? We are a high-mix low-to-mid volume manufacturer looking to gain not just a screening method but real process understanding that a Quality Engineer (myself) w

Just my two cents, but our findings were that the Yestech system was more in-line with our type of high mix, mid volume manufacturing. In my research, I found the Yestech to be the most favored for our applications, with most contract shops I talked

Hi Dave, This is manufacturer applied epoxy / adhesive to minimize package "lifing" from chassis flexing and thius board flexing. I have seen the complete array area covered with this black or red epoxy in some cases (i.e. the underfill that I've

Grant, Newer lead-free fluxes have 6%-10% solids content - more activator, therefore leave more "visible" residues. Old technology tin-lead fluxes got down to as low as around the 4%-6% range (I'm going off memory, so me might be wrong)... You'll

Hi we are a small contract manufacturer in need of a one time use cable crimping tool DF13-TB2630HC. We only have 3 (4) contact wires to make which will be plugged into another assembly. The p/n we are trying to crimp is DF13-2630SCFA. If you have th

The fluxes involved with lead-free soldering tend to be more aggressive and the tip deterioration is a side effect of making the world a greener place. I am not certain if any of the tip manufacturers claim to have lead-free resistant tips. I would
