R series Features FCS (Flex Calibration System) highly regarded easy maintenance just got even easier! The optional FCS calibration jig is a simple to use system to re-calibrate placement accuracy. The machine automatically picks and places jig comp

Hi Bert, For your second issue, are the tools well lubricated? If not the Midas head can fail to grab the tool and can generate the z motor error. Doing this followed by a base-centre level measurement should resolve your problem. Steve

I have been asked a very good question but have not been able to find a good answer. IPC for both PCB and PCBA refer to the X & Y dimensions to measure warp and twist but how would you determine the warp and twist for a round PCB or PCBA?

I'm not sure to what degree you are manually crunching this data.....If you can set up the data manually, or parse the data from a recording function, to allow it to import into a database with a formula for Cpk, and everything else you could ever in

I guess I took too much time editing my response. :P The bottom line is that unless you're measurements are at least as repeatable and accurate as your machine's closed loop systems, it's a waste of paper *BUT* makes nice wall art for tours. I like

First, we expect voiding in imm silver to be similar to ENIG. We expect more voiding in OSP than other common solderability protection. Second, choosing a solder paste, which does not contain resins and activators that decompose at higher temperatu

We are doing a field study to test the placement accuracy and calculate cpk of some machines in our plant. From previous readings, it is suggested that you buy glass board kits from Accuspec, Topline, etc. Is that the easiest/cheapest way to go abo

Check out http://www.solderstar.co.uk/wavePro.html This tool measures all key wave solder information with a single pass. Wave/PCB contact, immersion depths, etc. Also has a reflow pack to allow use on reflow, 9 channels with predictive software. B

When you look at the capabilities of Combo machines they tend to sacrifice performance when compared to separate X-ray and AOI machines, meaning they don't do either the X-ray or AOI operations as well as a machine that was designed to do only one. A

Hello EW, thanks for your input, the data collection for measurements such as these can get confusing because you're calculating deviations from set point location to actual placement location and then analyzing the full result. Then there are many o
