Let's think about this, there former filed service engineers. I bet they got out of field becasue of being laid-off. Typically the NON-Performers are the first to go. Hint hint.....former field engineers! Quad 4C's when they were new to the marke

Good Day! I am looking to purchase a Cyberoptics KS-Flex 18 AOI system, I have a couple of question that if you could answer, I would most appreciative. 1) Model and length of time used. Do they use AOI for all pwbs or just the more complex a

Hey, this is something that I've looked at and published a paper on back in 2003 at Apex, actually pert of one, the other part was lookign at how effective X-ray systems (lamanography systems) were at detecting & measuring BGA void size accuratly (co

Thanks Ken for your reply. Concerning OSP, there are a few negative points that I must considered for our application. I've read all the following points in an Entek document. Never test it. - If you have a miss print and you clean the PCB, the co

Thanks, That's the direction i'm headed. After by passing relay altogeather, testing large caps for the driver supply, replacing bridge rectifiers, and the MOV's, that's about all im left with. The vacuum motor will run with the software toggle witho

It sounds like you already know the answer. Hand soldering is much more stressful to a board than mass soldering, because: * It is more localized and there is no preheat. * It is more difficult to control. [Different connections require different h

I do not mean big, heavy transformers but rather small ferrite core transformers, with ferrites in the range of EF16 .. EF40. The weight of the lead and its percentage of the total weight is not the issue here. We simply do not want lead-containing t

Do you have any parts dedicated on the machine? 100n 0603 or 0805 is probably used on almost everything you build. So why take it off and put it on the machine several times a day. Even if you dedicate only 20 parts to never come off the machine, tha

James, It's good that you have internal part numbers. Some CMs use customer part numbers which makes dedicated setups much more difficult. Your materials group can tell you the quantities of part numbers they buy, and that can tell you which parts

The mount plane is not the same every time. Our machines are conveyorized and the bottom rail is fixed so the mount plane does change with the board thickness. The stand alone table has a V notch for holding the board with the flat edge on the bottom
