Thanks for all the responses. I do agree with what was said, and can certainly see reasons not to try. I'll write a little more about what we do. We are a defense contractor, and as I mentioned very high mix, low volume. We only have 1 SMT line.

Phil, The QSA-30 was built by Sam Sung, Sold by Quad. Single Head 2 Nozzles around 11K CPH Quad does not support the machine but I believe you can get parts direct from Sam Sung. I am not sure if they have a registration fee. The QSA used Quad made

I like what you're doing. 20 years ago anyone, hobbyists and tiny garage-shop companies could create electronics devices just as sophisticated and cool as big corporations. Today, SMT has largely trashed the creativity (and competition) that existe

Do you have strong technical support team that have related experience SMT EQUIPMENT in your company? If you do, use machine would be alright. If you don't, you need to hire afew because even with brand new machine, you still have a problem either

Afternoon all, Do you use any special surface other that ESD matting when changing over matrix trays? We currently use a earthed wire trolley that we keep trays and MSD bags on and when replenishing stock its carried out on the trolley. Does anyon

The problem about covering it with glue (without using solder) is that the components might dislodge by a miniscule amount underneath the glue. So maybe the contact points will disconnect. I'm not sure if this will be a real problem, but if so it wo

Ours does the same thing. I was told to update the software to fix the problem, but we just upgraded to a new machine.

Not to squash anybody's ingenuity, but most of the problems that you're trying to solve have been solved, and fine tuned, over the last 30 years of SMT. (Surface Mount Technology) I'm all for reinventing the wheel, but I suggest taking some time to

@Alexei Shkolnik Ah, I hope this doesn't become a problem. But if it does perhaps we can redesign the whole system? Push the components with a pusher that's connected from above rather than pulled by a magnet below. Perhaps the pusher can still clim

Sorry 10 days passed before I replied. This happened and that happened and I completely forgot about this forum. But here's my explanation: 1. How to get parts on the board? This is a very good point, and I totally understand why you believe I hav
