Hello Stefan, Thank you for your reply. I see now that manufacturers are aware that this kind of thought process is necessary for the bottom line profit. It is also true that one can be "seconds wise and minutes foolish" in the process. I read with

Optimal Speed for Universal Chip Shooters

Yukim, First off..sorry I haven't responded to this already. I hadn't noticed any responses in a while. I would be very surprised if you have worn nozzles in a two year period, but it is possible. For instance, if you have been running with an extra

Automation Equipment Registration Fees

Electronics Forum | Thu Jun 12 08:45:40 EDT 2003 | stefwitt

Nobody seemed to notice, when Genrad started to collect license fee on used machines. These were different times and customers could effort the extra $ 15,000 software license fee. I totally agree with Jason that in these days, we turn the dime twic

Wire bonding on gold fingers

Electronics Forum | Tue Jul 01 17:38:24 EDT 2003 | jartman

I've faced this several times in the past, and the only real solution is to wirebond before SMT assembly. Everything leaves a residue, and trying to clean a residue off later is basically hopeless. This may require some trickery in your SMT process

Double-sided reflow with a Altera 240-pin RQFP

Electronics Forum | Mon Jun 30 10:02:37 EDT 2003 | Steve Gregory

Hi Russ! An "R" QFP is what Altera calls their Plastic Quad Flatpacks that have a heatsink in the top...they actually call them Power Quad Flatpacks. I'm familiar with the formula, of how one can figure out if there's enough surface tension for a p

Micro BGA pads, adhesion to laminate

Electronics Forum | Wed Jul 09 16:01:10 EDT 2003 | russ

Mike, the one pad that is "small" definitely appears to be over etching (It looks like it was supposed to be much larger). What is the dims of this little bugger as compared to the Gerber? i would also tend to believe that there probably is some mask

Marcel, Reconfiguring your machine from 80 to 20 stations is quite easy. In the sequencer portion of your machine, it has it's own I/O box. in it, there's the MIT card, location (1). The bit switches are there to inform the controller in the in

CLEANING OXIDIZATION OFF OF WHITE TIN PADS

Electronics Forum | Fri Jul 18 10:23:06 EDT 2003 | James

The parts adhere solder very well. It does not pertain to a certain part on the board either it is all over the board. I cant really say that it is oxidization all you can tell is that on certain parts of the pad still shows like white tin and that

Samsung Placement Machines

Thanks for the feedback and appreciate your views. Here are my thoughts on the issue: Our engg's and operators say that Samsung is the easiest machine to train new operatos on. They however love Universal and Mydata and are pretty open to getting an

Shear Strength of Tinned Leads

Electronics Forum | Fri Aug 08 12:46:02 EDT 2003 | davef

When I was a salty old fart in the Navy, we sent the babes from the turnip patch off on snipe hunts. Shear tests are [in my opinion] senseless. The shear stress you measure depends more on the shear rate and on the point where the force is applied
