The E has a different x-y table setup, i seem to remember the CP6 having rollers and cams to control the z table height, the CP6E has a belt driven z axis. Also i think the CP6E is slightly faster, 44K cph against 40K, still just program it as a CP6

Craig - You should not use the leaded parts, as you are, in all likelyhood, going to see massive voiding. We just went through this same deal where I work, because a manufacturer sent us the incorrect parts. You can go with lead free parts with regul

Can't measure, but there is a dot inspection capability with the 401 auto-vision option that you should have on your Gemini. Check the manual or call Speedline Tech support for instructions, 800-737-8110. This option allows you to teach a "golden dot

Don't forget to buy the "Lead free heelstraps, smocks, wriststraps, hairnets and repair table" too. They cost twice as much, but you have to have them! We use regular wick and it works well with the LF solder. Vendor even ageed there was no need t

I hate to ask an obvious question, but are you sure all of your thermocouples are attached properly? I just can't imagine a 3X5 board having such a large Delta T unless it has some really odd parts on it. You sound like you know what you're doing,

Hi Brad, Being that I work for a board house here is my take on this issue. In the past it used to be 1 scrap per palt up to 10% of the total order. scrap is supposed to be sepperated to location and packaged sepertaly. Then it turned into No Scra
