Best scope to solder under....

Electronics Forum | Tue Mar 27 16:15:57 EDT 2007 | slthomas

I have never personally understood the attraction to Mantis, but to each his/her own. They make me seasick from shaking around, and the view area always seems to be rotating off axis for me. They work great if I stand on my head and close my right ey

Pick & place

Hi, There is lots of threads on this, so I would search these, and then do some reading. Then once you have some brands in mind, call the suppliers of this equipment and get some demos to learn about how each machine works. There is lots of differen

To use a mini stencil, or not to use a mini stencil.

Electronics Forum | Thu Mar 29 13:29:08 EDT 2007 | JD

Ewwww metal mini stencils? Try http://www.circuitmedic.com/products/stencils.shtml We use their flextac stencils all the time and they work perfect. You can get a couple uses out of each of them if youre careful too. Just line it up under a scope and

SMT are Dima, Autotronik and Fritsch the same machine?

Electronics Forum | Tue May 01 01:53:22 EDT 2007 | basem

My simple thoughts are that Manncorp is responsible for simply selling and supporting these machines for these OEMs in the U.S.A. I have talked over the phone with the guys in Germany at Autotronik and Manncorp is their distributor in the U.S.A. Auto

PCB washing

Electronics Forum | Tue May 29 15:10:30 EDT 2007 | realchunks

Hi Jerry, Sounds like the white stuff is flux. I doubt if 4 pcb mfgers could be undercuring all at once. Good point though. Since you changed washers and now have the problem - it's your new washer. Can you bring back the old one to make sure?

Cleaning prototype PCB assemblies and waste water

Electronics Forum | Fri Jun 22 11:18:23 EDT 2007 | agillman

I realize I am jumping in late but here is some REAL information. Waste water is controlled by EACH POTW (waste facility). It is NOT centralized as in EPA. The POTW's are primarily concerned with what might damage their pipes. First among their conce

SN100C wetting problems

Electronics Forum | Fri Jul 13 10:57:04 EDT 2007 | dboudreau

Dear all, we are using the lead-free SN100C solder alloy for wave soldering. We are experiencing wetting problems each time we have to solder a thick board or a board with a large ground plane.I think that maybe we are not using the right flux. I w

I agree with jdengler on the rotary table being skewed. You need a couple of dowel pins (1 1/2" long x 1/4" dia., I think) to align that disk. Each idler is held on an eccentric cam and can be adjusted to square up the rotary table by dropping the do

Philips Topaz programming question

Electronics Forum | Fri Aug 03 01:44:38 EDT 2007 | pavel_murtishev

Good morning Steve, What does optimizer say? What is the error generated by optimizer? Could you tell me exact error optimizer gives? Topaz ties to fit all feeders mechanically into the feeder plate when optimization starts. Optimizer generates an

Cleanliness: Cross Contamination of Flux

Electronics Forum | Wed Sep 12 20:46:16 EDT 2007 | Mag10

We've configured SMT and Wave lines such that each line can run either No-Clean and Water soluble process. As we are doing cleanliness study, an observation is there may be cross contamination when we share the Rework benches or PCB trays between No-
