AMS, Are you aware that you will have to purchase several types of insertion equipment for different part types? You will need an axial inserter, radaial and DIP inserter to cover the gamut of thru-hole insertion. Even then you may not cover oddba

| | Are stencils universal from one printer to another? We are looking into the possibility of going from Solderprint 1414 manual printer to a more automated printer. We are also considering bringing some boards we currently outsource in house. I

So we all know through hole assembly hasn't been completely eradicated. I am doing some research as to the types of through hole assembly that still remain. My questions are related to through hole requirements and past, current and future methodol

Interesting, see we used to do a large amount of PTH but we have been able to convert most of those parts to SMT now. the majority of our PTH is connectors. I am doing some research as to the types of through hole assembly that still remain.- This d

As you know 90% of defects come from the printer. This product is well worth the investment. You will improve yeilds and reduce rework. Very important with micro BGA's. Also lead free components do not self center (during reflow) as well. There is ve

Has anyone seen/used these yet? They seem to have lower coefficient of friction for release of paste and less wear and tear as well as conforming to the board better (plastic has better memory than stainless). Also there is no mesh so a larger image

Orrrrr, just buy a small reflow oven, 5K to 7K, and eliminate the paste printing by using solid solder deposition. No shorts, no opens, no cleaning, and no voids. www.sipad.com If you decide to print your own paste later you can invest the extra 30
