Well I honestly can't say that I have enough flow, so that's a good point. We don't have a flow meter or manometer on our reflow exhaust. How do you measure that? Or, is it just that you make sure your exhaust path is clean and the blower is wor

We have the Trion machines. Orbotech support has been more than fair. The learning curve for our particular machines is steep. As with any equipment you get out of it what you put into it. The machine does point out defects well, but the statisti

Almost 4-got. Get some squeegee blade detents. They're the little spring loaded things that keep the squeegee blades in place in the head, until the machine locks them in place. they tend to wear out if you do a lot of blade swapping. Fastek also

I agree with JME... You really need to do your homework when it comes to verifying if an AOI machine, or any other machine, will meet your requirements. Be sure to check out MIRTEC as well. Thes guys have got a very good name in the industry. My

250C peak temp seems very high for components. Thermal damage, which is latent like ESD damage, can occur on components at temps as low as 235C. Looking at component specs to see what the max temps are is a good idea I think when doing Pb Free trials

Hi All, I am currently looking at ways to reduce Dross on our wave process. One tool that I came across was the Pulsar Solder Saver. Its hand held and kinda sucks in the dross -returns the good solder to he bath and drops the powder on top of the P

You can either optimize both boards from the very start to the same table top or you can assign the feeders under configure tabletop to the same spot that they were in when you optimized the first program. Remember that you can optimize many differen

We had that problem with our printers we just drill and tap the top end of the stop and put a short screw in to allow us to adjust the top height of the stop and catch the board. Be careful not to make it to long or to could restrict the board from l

are u using 3d / 2d camera 1) machine setup support pin must be strong. 2) machine part libary must be perfect and good condition. 3) using the right nozzle. 4) check the board clamp must be clamp fully. 5) and we can also try doit head and camera
