The Juki 2060 can have both front and rear trolleys and you do not loose any feeder locations. My question was why can't the Assembleon put trolley on the rear? I recently visited a friend at a company that used a lot of Assembleon and compared run

Hi 'K', We manufacture both batch and inline defluxing equipment so we have no axe to grind with either technology. There are pros and cons associated with both technologies under specific conditions. Batch machines are typically good cleaners but

Solder iron robots tend to miss solder joints from time to time. The wire feeder systems are the key to these machines. Most use the edge of the board for alignment is another reason they miss. If you have SMD close to the thru-hole, the robot may

Hi, We are currently soldering only connectors, so there is not that much to do. For the wave we currently use palettes as we solder PCI cards but don't want to wash. So the palette keeps the flux off the board. My reasons for looking at changing o

J-STD-001 requires that solderable surfaces of components and connectors be degolded prior to soldering. As proven methods for removal of the gold plating and replacing it with tin/lead, MIL-STD-2000 and J-STD-001 endorse[d] either: * Double dip (two

Sr.Tech is absolutely right !!! This is where I had started, by changing all 4 brushes on the motor then I changed the connector since it was turning black (Mydata have a retrofit connector assy for that!, you can do your own also!) After trying thos

Heck, now I look up and see this is SMTdotNET. Do I get banned for asking a TH question? So here's my first real TH issue after living so long in the SMT world. We are having a sudden issue in what has been a stable process for quite some time. I

I am a user of an Ersa Versaflow 3/45. I was wondering if anyone could share some process pointers. I have a 0.125" multilayer PCB that I am having problems consistently achieving 75 percent hole fill on a mini-coax connector. The coax connector ha

Most of our product are mixed technology. I don't consider thru-hole components as "pesky." Perhaps from a manufacturing point of view they are due to the extra handling and machine requirements. But from a reliability stand-point, thru-hole is mu
