I have a samsung CP40 that is taking an average of 2.5 minutes to load a step program. My CP50 takes about 30 seconds. Both machines are configured the same in regards to the computers, both the operating system and internal CPU for machine functions

Take your disk out of the machine and use a Hard disk recovery tool after you have hooked it up to another computer. It may take a while but you should be able to recover partitions, files and registry if someone who knows what they are doing does i

VG foils are about 5mm thick and two in the rack takes up just under 20mm, so admittedly not a ton of space savings. That's not the only reason I like the VG system though. It takes multiple failure points (screen tension/mesh adhesion) and reduces

Back in October a post went up re: the fact that a solder manufacturer quit recycling paste, and the responses then weren't encouraging, so I'm gonna stir it up again. I haven't figured out what we're going to do with ours yet and it's piling up. N

Thanks for the information. Our company is eventually going to have to use 0201's and I'm thinking of all the possible problems that will be encountered. I'm not sure if it's true for all feeders but I believe they tend to have a small amount of pla

Here is our solution: We run the assembly line 40 hours per week and use 500g cartridges of solder. We take 1 cartridge out Monday morning and leave it out until the end of the Friday shift when it is put back into the refrigerator. That means you

Is the process the same for every product running through the selective solder machine? Load program, acquire or set up fixture, Change/load flux?, Change/Load solder pot? Are the machines cold when the operators need to use them or are the machin

Yes, pre-loaded feeders is the best way. If you do not have that option as you are high mix or do work for different companies that have many different part numbers, I would guess that your printer will take about 15 minutes to get ready, each HSP f

Is anyone having trouble with PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive) cover tape used with embossed plastic tape? I am placing 0402 components out of embossed plastic tape with PSA cover tape. The feeders gum up, the take up reels are impossible to remov
