Grandpa, You got it - Identifying the bottleneck operation is the key. The secret is to design a tool can predict accurately where this bottleneck is. In your formula you can use machine process time, PCB transportation time, part trim time, part in

As a CM, we don’t have a lot of input on the PCB layouts we receive. Some engineers/software packages output the paste layer 1 to 1, some do an across the board reduction, and some set each part up individually with different reductions per footprin

That's what I guessed. Some ideas to consider are: Reduce usage of flux to the bare minimum. Choose a low solids flux Flux residues can be categorized as soft, brittle, sticky but this depends mostly on the formulation of the flux and the resins

Hi all, I'm thinking of adding a high-end rework station to my lab. Budget-wise I can basically afford all the solutions from Finetech, Pace, Ersa, and others. However, I'm not sure which one to go with. I'm considering Finetech Core-plus and Pace

Hi, Our MCS30 had a bad backup battery in one of the boards. After changing the battery I got the all boot devices failed error. I managed to get a hold of some boot floppy disks and I can use disk1 to boot the MCS30 to a "$" prompt. I also have a di

I feared so. The only thing to be done is to tell the PCB manufacturer to increase the Thermal cure so dont set the oven to 150C but to 170C and actually measure the middle board and once it hits 155C then give it an hour cure from then. Also insist

Kanetic did implement a feature into their PLC code that would allow for simple reversal of the board flow. This is why the conveyor suddenly reversed direction after so many years. Because the feature was invoked by holding down a button it was kno

I have a support question concerning setting the gridlock tooling in manual mode on a MPM Momentum Elite. I am printing the top side (bottom is populated with parts) of a thin, flimsy PCB. The Grid lock tooling bows the PCB upwards in Auto mode, beca

Depending on what you are doing, feeder cost usually outweighs the price of the pick and place machines. I have worked with almost all of the Fuji CP turret machines. I haven't touched any of the new stuff but I have seen it in person and it is impr
