Going to SMT from THT you will find a tremendous difference in machine reliability. All the chip shooters are 99.9+%. Fuji has the largest market share in the US so you will hear alot about Fuji. In the Far East the Create chipshooter by Panasonic

Ok, I have been trying to purchase a magazine unloader (front of line to load brds into smt equip) from 3 different used equipment manufacturers. I have been hounding them for 4-5 weeks to get me a quote. They all tell me they have them but I have no

I looked at a number of small bench-top batch ovens and saw two things. First, they got VERY expensive when you got above the very smallest units. Mine will fit an 8 x 12" board. I still have to do one that size and see how uniform the temperature

We have a Kaeser AS-25 screw compressor with Kaiser air dryer + cylinders. The system has a water catch prior to delivering air to the dryer that automatically "spits" to a drain. It's not fool proof - if the water collector gets overfull, it will

I'm sure they'd be open to acrylic, as it'll provide a nicely hardened finish for them once cured. The real question is would it be workable to do what they're asking. That is, thick enough to coat the board when we dip it in without all slopping o

Hi Russ, yes, I did get the homeplate info, thanks. Thought that it looks that way, only didn�t know how to deal with that expression. Now your problem: it�s hard to tell without seeing it actually. All I wonder is this 80sec above liquidous, at what
