Just to clarify, you are talking about the inner black box not driving down and not the pneumatic function that brings the tactile assembly closer to the stencil? Sometimes the pneumatic shafts get slightly bent and the assembly will not retract. T

Why are they so > expensive? Feeders are expensive, you can easily have considerably more invested in feeders than the placement machine. On new machines you won't find feeders coming in at much less than $500/each, often considerably more. As a r

Looking at buying a new stencil frame. We are a small low volume, high mix place & can changeover stencils several times a day. There are several framing systems out there but most of them are Pneumatic.(VectorGuard,Zelflex,LTC Quattro) I've seen/h

Congratulations on being operational again... Few years ago, I acquired a Siplace line (S20 + F3 + S15 + G2) and I rebuild it completely because the line was lying idle for more than 10 years. All belts, pneumatic cylinders, pneumatic pipes were cha

For clipping off small boards and small quantities you can try Simonds. With no components and for longer straight cuts a shear would be more appropriate. How about the various de-panelling machines? The answer could be more specific if you would te

What we did was design or panels with routed out edges held on by tabs. This was very effective. All we use is a pair of pneumatic scissors to cut off the tabs. We are using from single-to 13 layer PCB's and we have had no problems with delamination

Short of locking them up and checking them in and out (and writing up your operators for not checking them back in at the end of a shift), I dunno. In short, I think ya gotta be a tool Nazi. We only use hand tools (assigned to the operator's pers

Electric drivers are harder to adjust wich keeps production people from messing with 'em. Electrics are resistant to other variables such as air preassure, quality, other air supply users on the same line and so on. I prefered to use all electric e
