We just encountered a problem with the vision on our MPM Accuflex. We just switched jobs and when we went through a 'Vision Set-up' there was no image (just blank gray screen where you'd normally see the PCB or bottom of stencil). When we tried to

We are looking at buying a used HELLER 1800 reflow oven. It is currently set up for 480v and our facility is 208v. I know we can either get it retrofitted or buy a step up transformer. Is retrofitting the machine simply moving a tap on the inter

Not sure how anyone could pretend to "ballpark" a cost for a board, regardless of size, especially in small quantities. You might need 10 assemblies, but the MOQ for your main component might be 100, 200, 500, 5K pcs. Makes me laugh every time I

Hello, Average correction should be used. If the nut on the z-rod is what you are seeing through the parts leads...you can use a smaller o-ring and slide it up to where the nut is to block it out. You may have to try a few sizes and/or even double ov

Hi Deni, Thanks for the input. That is my concern as well. Before getting to far I will try some repeatability runs and see if it is feasible. What is your experience with semi-auto printers and the primary issues you contend with? I'd like to ste

What SWAG said. We use a PCB Router exclusively for rigid flex assemblies. On a side note, we have begun to save fixturing costs by using 3D print technology to produce many of the fixtures, for both rigid and rigid flex. We can design and print l

My program PCBSynergy generates over 80 SMT formats. Unfortunately it only does the Siemens *.NC format at the moment. If you send me a copy of the format and the CAD file or the XYR file in a spreadsheet, which generated it. I can easily add it, esp

Thanks for your input Michael. Basically the boards had been go through from washing and even ionic contamination already. In order to eliminate or detect the flux residues, is there any equipment something like a uv lamp that can detect the flux fro

I would challenge anyone to present a legitimate cost justification on one of these machines that was not related to a very specific product/project. In other words I want to see what the advantage is $$ wise purchasing this machine over a screen pr
