If I may clarify something as to not give the wrong idea. As a used equipment dealer my focus is on the cost of ownership only for myself and the buyer at the entry point. I was assuming (perhaps incorrectly) from the gentleman's statement that the m

I did some work with 400E's and have can give you a couple things to try with your Y axis problem. 1. There is a file called stepperparms.exe that will load all the stepper parameters on the PCL IC's. Your y axix chip may have corrupt data on it.

There is an article on our web site by Richard Clouthier, �SMT Stencil Cleaning: A Decision That Could Impact Production.� He talks about how high pressure sprays can damage the delicate land mass areas between fine-pitch apertures. High pressure ai

Obviously, if your customer instructs you to use a certain flux type, using THAT flux type is probably a good idea. Responding to your question: Chloride is one of the more detrimental materials found on printed circuit assemblies. Chlorides can com

Glue has different mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties than solder. That's why all these very nice no-lead people are furiously trying to gin-up some wacky solder alloy, rather than using glue. Among the papers in the SMTA Knowledge base

Hi Dreamsniper, It seen this is the major issue had been occurs you.( We had face all this issue last time too) We had done a lot of areospace products before and most of ours products is a must on class 3 spec. BGA is not that tough t

First, how oxidized are these solder balls? Will the take solder using your routine flux / paste? Second, on restoring solderability, the three basic methods you can use to restore solderability on components are: * Highly active fluxes in a retinn

Rob, Don't know if you bought an "H" tower with your UP or not. You did you can have a dedicated support plate made from Aluminum that has pockets machined out to match components on the bottom of the board. (Most of the workholder guys can set you

The three basic methods you can use to restore solderability on components are: * Highly active fluxes in a retinning operation. * Surface stripping chemistry and then a standard retinning operation. * Electrochemical conversion chemistry and then a

None of the vision systems can really �read� a black object. In order to recognize an object a light source is required. The light is reflected from the object through an optical lens to the CCD chip. There is almost no light coming back from a black
