Is there a different thickness of screens we should be using for smaller components (sod523 / sot23 / 0603) or new pastes? Thanks.

We are using 6 mil screens, and these boards have 0603,SOT23 and SOD523. Seems like we could use *more* paste, not less on a lot of these components, so does it make sense to get a thinner screen? Wouldn't this mean we'd get less paste?

Oh I didn't know that about the springs of the tool! I had to turn the spring action off on one of my other tools already, so think I will be buying a couple definitely new C14. Thanks for letting me know.

Wish the tools I have had a key in them lol least I know now to be more careful with them. Thanks for letting me know I would have ended up damaging them all!

Hi I'm trying to pick and place a lot of sod523 components with a mydata my12. I'm using C14 standard tool and Hydra tool H01. For some reason no matter what I try to do when the head picks the component with the C14 tool the machine emergency stops

Has anyone had trouble with SMD machine placing of SC-79 (approx 0402) varicaps (infineon, alpha, philips)? Using the recommended pads from Infineon I am struggling to get the component to place flat on the PCB and the pins to wet properly every time

Please help to clairify the problem. Are we talking: * A pre-reflow [placement] problem? * A post-reflow [solder wetting] problem? Is the wetting issue that you mention related to the board or to the component? Please give us a little more detail

I'm testing SN100C, and with our 5 zone oven I seem to be able to fix one issue by changing the profile, but that might introduce a new problem. Some profiles work very well on most components, but have issues on other components. These are usually 0

One thing to be certain on the spring action of your tools is the direction of travel. With the new black tools the tube can seem normal but the slider is retracted instead of extended. This happens when pulling or installing tips. it is a very natu
