On cleaning under low standoff components: How about reading the papers that Mike kindly posted for you above? It's intended to answer questions about cleaning under low standoff components. On conferences, exhibitions, and shows: The BIGGEST show o

We have had an issue where a turnkey company has a solderability issue with boards that we supplied. The most thorough way of proving thay the boards work in my opinion is to take a bare panel randomly from the batch (same date code) to have it paste

try this..... I think there is a coupling for the theta motor....make sure both set screws are tight.....maybe the theta is slipping. Make sure there are no bright lights shining into the machine....maybe even throw a dark cover over the top and try

Tim, The main controller card has a battery on it. Power down the machine and disconnect power. Stick a credit card between the battery and the clip. Hold for at least 60 seconds. Then power back up the machine. Make sure to have yourmod codes writ

I have a new (to me) Vitronics XPM3 oven which we're hooking up. It requires 480V, and I only have real 208V in the facility. I have a transformered up 480 subsystem, but its corner grounded rather than center grounded. The XPM3 manual suggests tha

Hello, We are about to buy a old used Dima Optimat P&P I have already read the manual to know more about the possibilities. I have read it can place SOT23 packages, but i'm currious if it can recognize and place also the 5 pin variant (SOT23-5) and

I've never seen a good article with a definitive explanation - just speculation that the increased wetting forces due to nitrogen result in increased tombstones. My own experience is that nitrogen is a very minor contributor to tombstones and can pr

We agree with the points made by ScottE above. Additionally, most printers are not heavily loaded. So, you wouldn't have to buy another machine, give-up floor space, purchase and store peculiar tooling, etc. We think Darby does pin transfer. Maybe h

More agreement with screen print adhesives. Back in a former life time we did do pin transfer on one of our product lines. If you had to go with pins, make sure your adhesive rheology is suited for it. Different adhesives are designed for specific
