Hi, I am taking a survey. How many CP6/CP4 feeders should an experienced technician be able to calibrate and PM in an 8 hour shift ? Exclude major repairs. Just cleaning,lube and calibrate. We have implemented a full time feeder technician and I wa

Good Morning Everyone, This whole lead free thing has really stirred up the hornets nest! I agree that it doesnt make any technical sense to replace a cheap toxic material for an expensive toxic material that costs more, is more expensive to process

You are asking a very good question which has been an issue in the industry for a long long time. For operating at 225C, you will need a solder with melting point no lower than 270 or even 280C. HMP solder is very difficult to come by. At this stage,

If people use an inert gas, they use nitrogen for mass soldering. Inert gases get progressively more expensive as you move down the periodic table. Many times no-clean flux is less active than other flux types. So, people use an inert gas to lower

We need to be careful with product to avoid introducing a new failure mode, namely corrosion and dendrite growth, especially those running no clean processes! In addition to heat (reflow, wave and some selective soldering processes) killing the vi
