Bert, Clean the emitter disk of the nozzle you use for this part. Set everything in the PD back to where it should be and set the "Lead_check_area" to 10. This will look at 10% of the end of the leads. This will help if the leads do not have even

We would need to set up a line capable of placing ca. 70 million of components/year (preferably in one shift). It will be single product, so changeover is of no importance. Also, there's no need for extreme precision. I would prefer two separate line

The guys that take our dross (and pay us for it) take our barrels that contain scrapped solder paste as well. Also in the barrels are the nitrile gloves and disposable towels used in solder paste handling and cleaning. They pay us for the metal c

Check out ECS refining, they will recycle your paste and dross and cut you a check. We usually send 1 55 gal drum of dross and 1 55 gallon of waste and get a check back for ~$150. You can also contact the solder suppliers they usually have recycle
