I am seeing a motor error 4 intermittently during operation. Sometimes it happens as soon as a program starts, sometimes it will perform 1-6 placements and then stop with it. I have swapped the stepper motor driver cards, the EPCU card, the SRX card

Have you done any more work on this? I have a program that reads the Altium files, a feeder database,and makes a UFOS file for the older CSM machines. I can't get the UFOS to VIOS convertor on our Topaz X to read the UFOS *.BRD files. It stops and

All I can tell you about what people do with solder paste at the end of the day or for the weekend is. What the manufacturer recommends. What people say in public? What companies actually do as far as reusing it? I am not passing judgment on 1 or 3

We are using 2.7.7. I have two M1 systems, but the sw is the same. I am not at work at the moment, but I will look tomorrow and let you know. On a side note, the conveyor will run continuously when in bypass mode. It does sound like you have a tra

I am happy that you work in a shop that can build boards right the first time on a consistent basis. Unfortunately, I would say that every place I have been at, we have had a hard time meeting class III standards day in and day out without some kind

I used Indium WF-9940 at the last place I was at for 5 years. We ran leaded and lead free product in our ERSAflow selective soldering machine with that flux type. It worked good for both applications. The place I am at now we have an Ersaflow selecti
