Hi Adam, Good question. I know I am seeking a lot of details. Here's the deal. Five years ago I acquired the assets of Contact Systems. Since then I have been re-manufacturing the CS-400E machine which if you are not familiar with is a light guid

Hi Spoilt, Thanks again for the feedback. It is really an eye opener for me. What I fail to realize is that perception, whether right or wrong, plays a big role in whether or not someone might consider a process change. Your first comment is reall

Good ole contact cs-400. I worked at two different companies that had these machines, all I believe were E's except 1 C. One place had one and the other place had 4 of them. Dont take this personally, but thank god my current employer doesn't have a

Hi Joakim, I do not know the QP242 table, but on our GP-341, CP-IV-2 and IP-III we make a plate from plexiglass with milled holes to show where the supports go for each board. This is not as fast as the Gridlock but does not cost nearly as much. J

Does anyone have any sort of Chart comparisons for the advantages of SMT over Through Hole? I realize this is old material and for that reason I believe it's now hard to come by (in presentation format). I know someone trying to convince a mature ent

Dave: I haven't located something to support your contention, yet, and I'm not going to comment on the factors that drive reliability beyond component selection, because I know that you've got some sweaty-palmed sales type wringing his hands waiting

For the most part there would not be a lot of change over. There are two primary boards at this time that would be run on the line that also use common components. At this point all but a couple of the pick and place machines we have looked at have t

Yeah, but can they place through-hole? We looked at Panasert's Radial a couple years ago. Some big advantages over the Radial Lead 5's that we had at the time, but couldn't deal efficiently with all of our electrolytic cap orientations. We wanted to
