There is a 8lb steel plate that is held down by 4 toggle bolts at the top of the machine. Its where you load the cutting media. If that plate does not have a pressure gauge built into it, contact CCR. They will send you one free of charge (at least t

Tape test to check adhesion and multiple point thickness test - each board has 5 points per side documented for thickness testing & we measure pre & post coating thickness with an electronic meter. Also temp & humidty are also logged, and alarms go o

I am working on an acrylic coating with solid content around 30%, I want to control the coated thickness to be 1 mil exactly. Any experience on this. Best regards.

How do you intend to maintain uniform coating thickness using a paint gun, besides ensuring coating consistency? What is the application you are looking at?

Rob, Have you considered doing multiple dips to build the coating thickness up to what your customer thinks is good? We've done this on a small handful of products for several years. Extends your lead time, but it doesn't need to fully cure betwee

Thick, hard conformal coatings of acrylic, urethane and epoxy have a well documented history of causing solder joint cracks and breaking glass/ceramic and other brittle components. Dissimilar expansion and fairly high surface bond strengths of the ma

IPC-HDBK-830, Guidelines for Design, Selection and Application of Conformal Coatings says: A conformal coating may have several functions depending on the type of application. The most common are: * Inhibit current leakage and short circuit due to h

We all genuflect to Graham Naisbitt, a generous contributor to SMTnet. Moisture-curing urethanes may form minute bubbles if the coating is too thick or the coating environment is too humid. So, tell us more about your urethane and the method you u

Dunno. What is your goal in coating boards? What material are you using? How thick are you applying this material?

It sounds like your poly dots are secreting something that affects coating thickness. Is this a function of the adhesive used by poly dot supplier?
