I have noticed when I call the MPM parts hotline I get Ken at MPM (Franklin). Also, my friend who has worked at mpm for over 10 years mentioned that Camelot has beem moved into the Franklin facility with MPM. There was a large debt load on that tra

Depending on quantities etc, you probably have a few options. If it's the automated route you require then any of the radial insertion machines from UIC or TDK will do the job. We've inserted LED's in the past with machines over 10 years old, so if

Hi, there is also a German company making odd-shaped component insertion equipment, actually very very suitable for LED placement and soldering in the same process cycle. LED's are held in position until soldering is complete, straight and in the s

We'd be incluned to dip the BGA ball in tacky flux, place the BGA on the PTH interposer, reflow that suka, and get on with things. [Take the people involved out to lunch with the money you save on not buying a stencil.] On damaging the glop top, we'

What do they say? Not too much as of yet. (I haven't actually recieved them yet.) The parts are being custom made by my customer. I've already bought my stencil, so I'm thinking I'm just going to try and stencil the tacky flux right on the pads and p

I see where I went wrong. The numbers provided by "Process Engineer" are correct. My company is trying to adhere to the Six Sigma code of business and the managament here falsely assumed that all of our equipment can do that as well. After doubl

Hi, all, I have done an analysis through Statistics on solder volume whose purpose is to identify the required volume for different pitch printing (0.65 or above, 0.50, and 0.40 mm). Finally, came out a regression model. But, I need to evalua
