Hello, I need some advice. I want to create apertures in my stencil for a IBM CCGA. I've heard the standard is 4800 cubic mils of paste per aperture. I usually use a 5mil stencil for this type of product. There is no way I'll get enough paste wit

Just a question: have you ever tried to transfer programs between 2 identical MPM printers, or between 2 identical CAMALOT Geminis? Well, you'll be surprised to find out that you have to spend 15 to 30 min tweaking them on the second machine. And th

I would use an SPM if it was my choice(for a semi-auto). You should be able to get a used one with vision for less than 10 grand. I would not use one without vision for fine pitch, although you probably could get away with it. The first few they made

First off, go with HiE (Hi Efficiency) machines only. UP3K and UP2K have huge differences- board size, speed, options, etc... too many to list really. I would recommend UP2K HiE over UP3K HiE. Its a simpler machine and easier to find on the used m

currently we have a new Horizon 02i, new software "instinctive" is pretty easy to program and operator friendly, i love to work with proflow. Gridlock is not working so good as they told. I don't like that the paper doesn't roll while you're under cl

As an MPM guy and would choose.....MPM, surprise! Of the legacy models the UP2000 seems to be the favor among most of my clients. Newer models like the Accuflex's and Accela/Momentims are great, but as far as the old stuff the UP2K's are the favorit

I've never seen this before. Today, I got this tombstoning on Tantalum Capacitors (Okay, I saw that before) Here's the part that seems weird to me: -They didn't tombstone onto a termination - they went onto their sides! That's right, both terminati

I agree with Steve...most certainly a placement occurance. I've seen this on many occasions with Panasonic equip. Change your feeder first and then check your component packaging. | I've never seen this before. Today, I got this tombstoning on Tan
