Hi mates, need some help to resolve a thumb-twine situation. As a high-mix, low volume prototype build house, we always conduct a first article inspection (FAI) on every model setup conversion in the SMT production Lot run. we do this FAI by mounti

They key requirement before any fancy tools is careful storage, stock control, labeling and handling. If your parts are incorrect before they even get to production, you're screwed. As gregp suggests, to get consistently correct value and orientation

Hi I did a reflow on a laptop board and after the reflow the board is warped in the area I did the reflow in, and now the laptop screen does not turn on at all when I put it back into the laptop. Original problem was the wifi (I did the reflow more o

I am still learning the CSM84, but have gotten one board programmed and working. Now, I'm doing the next board, and need to use the mechanical alignment unit for a 22 x 22 mm TQFP. This chip is too large to clear the jaws on any head. Can the CSM h

Hi, Yes, one of the problems with the MYDATA is the feeders are in groups, but at the same time, they are simple, and don't break. But the new Agillis 12 and 16 mm feeders do jam a bit. It's worse on glued cover tape, while heat bonded cover tape is

Hi SMT Frog We are using an upgraded Mydata TP9-1 system to place 0402s. We do an electrical test plus mechanical centering and use the C14 tool. A few things we have observed/learned: 1) Is the machine not picking the part up out of the tape? Po

The 740 has been a great machine for us. We've been able to reliably load components as small as 0603 (we've not tried 0402, but I believe with a special nozzle adaptor, you can get it to work) and place a 7x7 56 pin QFN with 0.4mm pin pitch with hi
