Does anybody have any information regarding an Omegameter 500 (Kenco Industries)? We’ve run 4000+ tests with this machine and all have produced a pass result without a single failure, starting to wonder if tests aren’t accurately assessing PCB cleanl

I have used one (actually 2) of these machines. The upside is you can point to the print-out and tell your customers that you do test for cleanliness, and you pass. The reality of this test is that it tests for exactly 1 type of contamination. The

Don, either you have a faulty park sensor or much more likely the vision gantry Y axis is not reaching the sensor. Possible issues, one of the two VY drivers cards is failing; one of the VY forcer motors (air bearings) is failing; to much air leakin

I'm curious why you ask this question even though I really don't know whether there is such smt assembly facility in HK. Maybe you think there is 17% VAT in the components to China outside from China mainland, but there is no tax in HK. I have to say
