Two things ... A friend in the contract coating business said: "... the board is not being baked out long enough, 30 min is certainly not long enough depending on how many layers this board is, as the vacuum (from the parylene process) is pulling t

Hello Marc, Thank you for the recommendation. I've contacted our local service support. We found out that heat coming from higher zones 7, 8 & 9 overflows to zone 3, 4 & 5 which affects actual temp reading at Z3,4,5. Since we already replaced some b

Thank you for the reply, MPMEng. I received the Speedline UPG-026/27, but it actually came with the incorrect mouse. Since original post I've contacted seller, received correct mouse, successfully installed drivers, encountered a new issue. At thi

Hi guys. I'm dealing with 3 MPM Ultraprint 3000 machines in our plant that were showing different issues. I managed to solve most of them but one is killing me and I can't seem to solve it. It's a 3000 HiE model... Basically, the machine seems to be

Hi Zac, My 2 cents: We had similar problems on a board in the same situation (tin-lead HASL, very long leads, low pot height, high pump RPM). Trimming the leads shorter, moving the pot closer to the board, and dropping the pump speed down to sane

We have a Samsung that we have replaced all the amps and are still getting the Z axis motor alarm failure. On the “Position Window” before and after we try to “Home” the machine, the values for “Z-Axis” for all three heads prior to the “Home” action

Sr. Tech, Just think about it. How do you clean your stencil after you finish the job? Dry wipe and put it on the shelf? Dry wipe will work to some extent for simple boards, but your stencil will never be perfectly clean like if you use solvent. You
