we have omron, before buy I have evaluated lot of other machines, what I like most is the three ring at different angle lighting which allows pseudo 3-d solder joint evaluation and historgams with statistics, you can see out of total solder joints ho

Hi Stuart, just to be clear right from the start I work for Asymtek, so you know where this reply is comming from. I agree with Jax and Micah that to purchase Fuji or Camalot will probably be a system that you are more familar with, so the learning

I really appreciate your advice. Dave did not offer much in the way of real advice, his response was mostly diatribe. I am looking at visual inspection at this time as AOI might be overkill in my case. I believe that it, in combination with the machi

No clean flux is really a misnomer. What is often taken to mean no residue in effect means no visible residue. Because you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't here. Many manufacturers have been through this same learning curve. The goal with a no clea

| Does anyone have angles on how to reduce N2 consumption at reflow process (i.e. process control equipment, etc.)? | | Any help would be appreciated | N2 consumption is very "machine" and process dependent. Some machine designs are better equipped

X-ray can be helpful in trouble-shooting BGA component failures. Test techs can quickly determine whether or not a BGA has solder bridges. When a bridge is found, this can eliminate hours of trouble-shooting. And when a bridge is not found, the te

We are a company that designs a product but gets the PCB fabricated and the surface mount assembly done out of house. The product then comes in house and we test it, do some final assembly on it, and ship it. We recently had a prototype run of PCB'
