Thanks for the comments so far. The smallest nozzle I've tried is a 4mm, which is what Pillarhouse used on this board to provide a sample. I tried this but wasn't as good as the 6mm. I've soldered the same connectors on a different board using a 10mm

This is a question regarding soldermask between pins of fine pitch devices. The majority of our production designs end up with at least 2-3 mils of copper thickness on the external layers due to blind vias, wrap plating requirements, etc. Our curre

All right to expand on this, I've since learned a lot. On the computers running XP, I'm able to register a line no problem. Now I'm trying to get the Windows 7 computer to work. I have the windows virtual pc XP edition installed on here. I was ab

Ok we have to admit that for some reason you went for the used machine, but the $6000 are worth it, I have 2 of the same machine without the NG marker, and in 4 years (the newest one ) and like 6 o more of the old one, there have not been a mech prob

Hey Bill, it really depends on the material you're looking at using UR, SR, AR, the easiest to deal with being AR, although if you can find a UR that doesn't clog up the machine too bad those are usually more viscous and easier to apply selectively u

Our new Soltec Delta 3 has this feature (they call it mainwave pushup) where you can add up to 60 rpm to the pump after the leading edge passes over the wave. Unfortunately, our old Delta Wave doesn't have this feature. Ideally we'd like to set it

Hi, I just returned from vacation, I left some unfinished business I should resume. Our Quad 4c has a broken Align head (I was able to diagnose this problem thanks to the help of mr. Bobpan). Just after my first posting, I was e-mailed by PPM and I r

We had this issue with a few parts on our universal 8mm feeders. The set up was correct all mechanisms were working, even tried a new feeder. The spring in between the take up wheel and pick point just wasnt cutting it since the adheasion was too m

In agreement, in that you should have already printed enough paste on the board to accomodate the joint. Adding paste would give the result you described. (too much solder) Adding a little flux (only) and heat would be the correct path out of that s

2 oz copper should be 2 oz per ft^2 thick. There is no relationship between thickness and copper weight due to the effect of processing. Since this is a painful way of thinking about things, ppl have reached a compromise and talk about 'nominal thick
