We purchased an Ekra X5 at auction a while back to replace our semi-automatic stencil printer. We bought it knowing the following: it was running when removed, it had no manuals, screen or keypad (as I've seen on other ones). I'm trying to put toge

This was not a automatic feature of the 4796 series HSPs. You can try to continue to reset-start the feeder crg after each component missing event,and slowly build the remaining placements, but at some point you will reach a dead end. My best advice

Thank you PWH, All good points. I use a semi-automatic printing process not a screen printer so if more solder balls and beads are created then I would be creating more re-work and that is exactly what I do not want to do. I guess the best thing to

Bob Willis (was the first I knew of) that has a splatter test that can be performed over a ceramic hot plate or the like. The concept is pretty straight forward, using a zoned circle, users can introduce the solder wire at a consistent rate and coun

A couple of points: * Just a nit, 'screens' fell in disuse 10-15 years ago. Old habits die slowly don't they? * Yes, DEK and MPM each hold about 50% of the solder paste printer market and about 4 or 5 others hold the rest. SOLDER PASTE PRINTER EQUI

Most decent manual printers should work out OK for what you are asking. There are also some fairly nice semi-automatic machines that take the basic clamshell design of many manual printers and add some cameras to help with alignment and powered squee

Hi Deni- Not having many responses is an indication that many are not familiar with this Unit. Usually, many Siemens people are on this forum. Being an applications Engineer for Siemens from 1993-1998 I did not run across many of these machines in th

Dittos from A Very Frazzled Man. Money spent on a better process is almost always more advantageous than better inspection. As for manual TH insertion, have you considered a semi-automatic machine like the Contact Systems CS-400? While the "E" serie

Our company is looking to upgrade from a dek249 semi-auto printer to an automatic inline printer since we're doing some fine pitch packages which are tricky to line up, and we'll soon be tackling bga's for our products. We're looking on the used mark
