We all seem to have forgotten about cover tape peel force testers. GPD makes them as do others I suppose. I would ask the tape and reel house if they have a tester. If they don't I would consider using someone else. Otherwise as another poster s

We have a name brand aqueous batch cleaner that uses a chemical and DI water to clean ROL0 flux from our PCBs. It does ok most of the time for SMT boards and we want to include through hole assemblies as well which should be a better cleaning process

Do any of you use your AOI machines to inspect do-not-install locations? Do you look for solder bridges or stray parts in those spots? Everything I have learned and heard involves part placement and solder quality. But is it worth going that extra le

Most of the PTH components are manually inserted. Some are auto-placed by our UIC machine. The parts are preped before install, so there is no need to trim the leads afterwards. The boards go through wave solder. The UIC machine has a clincher on
