| We are in the process of deciding whether to change a PCB product from a single board to a 3 up panel array. Could you please advise on the most effective removal design, either scoring or snap off, taking into account that material utilisation is

Individual process steps are approximately the same length of time for reworking a BGA. You seem to be comparing the use of the automated SMT line versus an off line rework station. Consider that the off line station is a complete paste print, pick

Hey dragonslayr Just a follow up comment from your comments that you fail to see the significance to the value of the assembly. My point was that if the board is worth say 100.00 cost and you built 100 per day and 2 per day require manually rework

Jason I am an equipment buyer part of my job is to be knowlegable in every make and model we look at, registration is a calculable cost going in before penny one is spent many brokers and oem's know who I am and I will rage about registration, howeve

I recently installed some used capital equipment for a major multi-national corporation. I was blown away by their penny-pinching, micro thinking attitudes of how they felt their 2nd or 3rd hand purchase should be supported directly by the OEM. T

As a shot in the dark response to a hopelessly vague question .... Back in the old days, we'd see corrosion of metal parts after DI water washing when our water was on the high-end of the resistivity range, usually after we received fresh tanks from

Hi, We got a used Mirtec MV-2HTL. I was able to sort of get it to work without any training. Their software seem well design and it did find the same errors the human inspectors were finding. But be aware that you have to register with Mirtec if you

The boards are expensive because they are your product... covered in circuitry. A 2% scrap rate costs twice as much as a 1% scrap rate. Say the parts on your consumer electronics board cost $5. A machine that makes 99% good boards and 1% bad boards

Dear Forumites, It's been a while, but I have a question. I was recently asked to provide a scenario on capacity if we retired two older lines and replaced with a new line. My capacity figures were based on real time production over a period of six

Gyver: Lemme take a wack [if you�ll excuse the expression, given direction of the later discussion] at your questions. Q1. Will the baking of BGA or PCB cause more oxidation before the SMT process? A1. It certainly will not cause less oxidation,
