Ken, Thanks for the info but I do not see where this addresses my main concern of placement using an alternative to the tweezers and keeping the board on the conveyer. Please let me know if I am missing something. Thanks, Kevin

Kevin, I saw a few months ago in a Philips pamphet that they now have a "tray" that sits at the feeder locations for loose components or a small tape of components. I think it was for the Topaz machine.

Kevin If you want to go automated then why not take a look at the Philips ACM. It is the flagship for placing SMT and Oddform packages. We use Vacuum nozzles and Grippers to handle many truly oddform components.

I am interested in recommendations for International Purchasing Organizations (IPO's) that would help in sourcing. The agencies should be adept in electronics acquisition in the far east. Please send recommendations off list to: ksfacinelli@yahoo.

I would have to agree with the to high temp being a real problem. I have seen this with the WS-609 alpha paste. If you run it up to high in temp. The joints appear to be cold but they are really just over fried.....definitely try reducing temperat

Hi Kevin, Hepco makes a small unit called a Hepco 3000-2, with the right die set this should be no problem. The unit should retail for around $600.00USD, have a good day. Sincerely, Zack Schmad factory-automation@cox.net

I am also interested in anyones obervations. I am most interested in anyone changing over from ws-609 to ws-709. I have read the technical information but I am most interested in hearing from a user.... Thanks, Kevin
