We have been running a Heller 1707EXL for 8 years and added a Heller 1707MKIII about 1 years ago. We have not had any problems with either one of them. We do both lead and lead-free assemblies along with BGA/LGA components. If speed/volume is not

I like MpM personally - run forever and programming is easy and leads you through it. It's hard to miss a step of programming with MpM software. DEK's a little harder (for me) but still very nice controls. The pluses of DEK - DEK has a high freque

Has anyone out there done any lead free testing using a Vitronics Unitherm 500 oven? based on the specs I have dug up on the machine I suspect it should work fine but it would be great to hear from someone that has done it. Thanks in advance.

We are currently experiencing problems with delamination during rework/2nd op activity on lead free. I am suspecting this is a result of the use of a heat gun to rework components. My assumption is that the high heat and time in area greatly increa

Hi Mark, Look on the bright side, if you want to change from HASL you've got the lead free issue which will allow you to evaluate all other finishes, and find the best one for you. Dave, have you seen any unleaded HASL finishes & any issues arising

In one board we are using 213 SMT components out of which 23 components are lead-free and the rest are leaded. The paste used is also leaded. Do we have to make any changes in the profile of our reflow oven ? Also will there be any negative effect on
