Hi, We have a new product coming soon that has a fair number of PTH sockets and headers. I was thinking that it would be good to use intrusive reflow on some of them to even up cycle times between SMT and hand insertion, however, when i called t

Guys, My problem is that I have a 10 up panel and I have to use a selective pallet to run it thru the wave process due to SMT on bottomside. However the yields are very poor. We have done everything to improve them with some good improvements along

I think Dave F. and Russ hit the nail on the head...components are wrong in the reel pocket from the get go. We would make a point to specify this when ordering parts. Russ also, has a good point with his number "2" item. If your machine is optomiz

Hi AJ, Just had a look though our parent company's stock on components, and even the smallest of diodes & transistors (such as DFN1006-2 package - roughly 0402)come on 8x4 plastic. All of the 8x2 pitch tapes are paper (EIA: 01005, 0201, 0402; JIS: 0

Nothing like making a handful of changes all at once to confuse an issue, huh? Did you (or whomever ordered the stencil) spec. the same stencil design parameters that you would normally have used? We've never done fine pitch of any sort on silver
