A thread os "old" when it drops off the page. So, "age" depends of the 'forum', for example: * 'Production Forum' threads currently drop off the page after about 12 days. * Other forum threads drop off the page after 30 days.

Hi, Each people will have diff idea. If you ask me... with that $90k in hand you can get a used MPM 3000 fully automate from some dealer/broker. Very nice machine. Prices will be depand on age and option. Good luck.

Do you have a different reel of parts. The leads could be oxidized from age. If everything else is soldering well, I would try that. Is your profile on your oven correct?

Comments are: * We're amazed that you can thermocompression bond to epoxy. * Silver may be oxidizing during expoxy cure. * Klein Wassink talks about aging in THE BOOK [Soldering in Electronics: A Comprehensive Treatise on Soldering Technology for Sur

I thought I was the only one left with one of these dinosaurs. How is yours working for you, ours (despite its age) still works pretty well. I think its going on 20 years old now!!

How old are these parts? Sn/Ni plating is very succeptable to age and everything else. They are possibly tarnished. Also, what is your peak temp in reflow? It takes about 225 230 C to get good wetting to the underlying nickel. Russ

Hi Jon, Thanks for your reply. Age of the machine does play a part too. So, at 60%, there is still 10~20% improvement opportunity for the Siemens machines.

$18-$25 per/hour . . . depending on experience, age, sex, and race. Just kidding about the last three.

My company runs an older TP9 machine that has had a few problems due to the old age but their tech support has been VERY good. I would recommend Mydata to anybody.

Global warming? Hmmm, seems to me the Earth has been getting� warmer ever since the Ice Age. Seriously, do you believe lead is a major contributor to global warming or just a severe right wing nut?
