One per operator is the optimum for obvious. 3 to 4 per operator is more typical. The number is not as important as the type and time. Like don't have someone handle 2 different TO92 part nrs., splitting them up to different operators eliminates the

We are building class 3 products, using no clean on wave and selective solder machines. Both processes are producing micro solder balls between the leads of through hole components. I have searched the site and haven't found any recent threads on h

You have my sympathy, the Line computer Station configuration screen is hard to get your head around. Assuming that you have configured the station correctly you might need to re-compile the station and/or consistency check it to see of it passes.

Hi, We need to solder a USB plug onto a PCB in our SMT machines, and this is the same type of plug you see on USB storage devices. It's a very flat connector with 4 SMT pins, however the hard part is the bottom of the connectors is the same level

The CM I work for barely clears 1 million a year. On more than one occasion they had to use their personal funds to make payroll. Our sister company clears over 3million per year. I have been unable to determine what their process engineers are makin

I looked at a number of small bench-top batch ovens and saw two things. First, they got VERY expensive when you got above the very smallest units. Mine will fit an 8 x 12" board. I still have to do one that size and see how uniform the temperature

Thanks for your replys but I can't figure out why this problem is so much bigger in one owen when we run nearly the same mix in both our lines and we use in 99% of the production only the same 2 different pastes, lead and leadfree. The pastes we use

We don't have one of those cool air compressed syringes to dispense adhesive. We have to do it by hand. My question is does anyone have any suggestions on syringe size, needle size etc... for successful deposition of SMT adhesive? I know you can go s

I must ask the silly question- are you sure you deposited the correct amount of paste? Depending on aperature design-the voiding could come from a stencil that has its holes partially built up with old paste. If paste volume is guaranteed, then what
