We are using Kester 985M in our Pillarhouse Jade. We only run SnPb, but this is a newer formulation of flux that is suitable for both lead and lead free alloys. Call the manufacturer of your selective soldering machine and get their advice. They ty

I recently bought a used Universal conveyor #5362I. All I need it to do is pass through boards from 1 machine to the next without operator intervention. The only way I can get it to accept a board from the upstream machine is by pushing the yellow bu

If they sold you the lens and refuse to support it I'd demand your money back. I'd never deal with a company with this sort of policy - who would buy new kit knowing that the potential resale value is decimated by the manufacturer's policy of ripping

Do you have cal. fixture(s)? If not, one 1/2 baked way to get yourself closer quickly is to go into your programs and write down your x/y offsets that you've gained during vision offsets while in production. Compare them - hopefully they are very s

We had the same motor problem with our My12, whenever we would get the sound we would go through and slow down X accel speed in any packages and the placement accuracy as well. After doing this for quite a while we finally tried updating the motor c

So are you more concerned with cleaning the board than fixing the issue? Are you employed by the OEM? If so, your main concern should be to eliminate the cause of the contamination which sounds like it's coming from the board house. But if you are

Have you tried an ultrasonic water cleaning process? We use an ultrasonic cleaner with tap water and Omega Aqua Clean LPH cleaner (omegasonics.com) then rinse with DI water. However, our cleaning requirements are not as strict as yours are from the
