Hi Spoilt...thanks for your reply. The latter part of your reply is a bit perplexing though. The CS-400E is easy to set up. There are two lights spots that indicate the insertion location. The component does not need to be prepped other than bent

your summary is pretty accurate! yeah our justification on the automatic system is long in the pipeline. we would need significant volume even then we could just bump the staff numbers. I can see how you are having troubles with the legacy requirem

Hi Adam...thanks for your follow up comments. The auto inserter in the video is a machine from a time gone by...But quite impressive. Those machines are good for higher volume where high flexibility may not be required. not sure if all of the comp

gregp: Our PTH process has not changed in many years. Our products are fairly simple as far as electronics goes and everything gets potted anyways. ~90% of everything we build is single sided TH with ~ 100 solder joints per board. Each board is ~

I need some input on what good solder thieves dimensions should be. I am limited to solving my bridging problem with solder thieves; all process/wave variables have been adjusted to try to solve this problem. There are several of these connectors on

Hi, I take it you are refering to intrusive reflow? It came around as more components became available in surface mount packages leaving mainly connectors left over for a separate insertion operation & wave/selective/hand solder. Manufacturers imp

Mike, A drag solder system is not so bad. If it's not discoloring the silk screen , damaging your parts or blistering your boards than it looks like a safe bet. I am not sure what other components you have on the boards besides the LED's? But the

As an OEM repiar tech I would run into "Black Pad" on occasion, though mostly on surface mount pads. The only way I could remove the oxidation was to apply water soluble flux and add solder, then wick away the excess. This left me with a suitable s

Our hole inspector gives this error message “Base Hole Error”. It is a flat conveyor-type hole inspection machine from YAYATech that scans PCBs, with an optic sensor and cameras on top of the belt and a light source on the bottom of the belt. And dur

Hello Russ, I'm not quite sure I understand your question. Are you saying that you must hand solder these connectors because the gold plating doesn't allow other though hole processing methods to wet the solder the length of the pin in the PTH? Reg
