I have a customer that wants 5000 hrs to red rust. The steel is plated with chloride zinc (barrel plated) and a black chromate. They say a company in Taiwan has the technology, but can not deliver in a production setting. Does anyone know of a cost e

Quick Frame and Dek 265GS

Electronics Forum | Wed May 20 07:13:15 EDT 1998 | smd

Does anyone use the "Quick Frame" with their Dek printer? The threads on the screws keep stripping, so we thought maybe we'd send our frames to a machine shop for heftier screws. Has anyone done this? Is there a better way? Isn't it weird how Alpha k

Are US OEM Manufacturers Dead?

Electronics Forum | Fri May 31 15:24:17 EDT 2002 | davekalen

I have seen manufacturing leave the rust belt for Mexico and I am now seeing Mexico plants closing and work going to China. I know that the equipment sales are really in a slump as everyone else has said. It is interesting to see that company after c

You could also try using a wire mesh out of stainless steel(won't rust). We used these as reflow baskets and for covering parts for a steam cleaner we had for W/S flux. go to http://www.mcmaster.com and type in *Metal and Thermoplastic Cloth and Perf

Eyewash Solution solution

"Would you be able to use a piped water eye wash system? That way the water is always fresh." That's what you would think, but I've heard otherwise. If you don't flush them out regularly, the water will sit in the pipes and start coroding them. If

Stainless Steel tabs in brd assemblies

Electronics Forum | Sun Feb 03 11:10:13 EST 2008 | fastek

Pretty simple explanation really as it's happened to equipment I have sold and sent to Asia. If the paperwork on the importer's side of the transaction isn't up to snuff or they haven't paid off the right guy to get it in the country, the machine w

BIRAL T&D Lubricant

Electronics Forum | Tue Jul 07 07:08:23 EDT 2009 | daxman

During a service call, We had a FUJI guru tell us that Biral was actually not a great lubricant for LM rails or rust prevention because it thickens and gums up quite quickly, which is true. His recommendation was to use TFL-50 wet lube. We've been u
