Hi, Thanks for the info, and what are your thoughts on this application software suite. Do you use it in house yourself? I would be interested to know if anyone on the forum us using this, and how it works for them. Regards, Grant Blackmagic Des

Hi Grant, I have experience with both MPM and DEK and can say both are excellent. I am currently using a number of DEK 265's and have received good support from Vema. Remember, you only get what you pay for. Cheers.

Hi, Ok, and thanks for the advice, I am going to check into the DEK printers heavily, and see how they work. As of yet, I have not seen one in operation, so I have a lot to check out. Thanks for the advice! Regards, Grant Blackmagic Design

Grant, Sorry for the delay in a response, I just got back into the office from the holidays. I have 265's, Horizons and Eclipses.

Hi, We settled on a high end DEK Horizon printer, and thanks to everyone for the info. The machine arrives on Monday, so this will be good! Regards, Grant Blackmagic Design

Hi, What's the product, and how are they inserted? At 90 deg, or standing up? What brand connectors are you using? Regards, Grant

Grant & JDumont: You should not have this white residue on your wave soldered connections, using VOC flux [but you know that, anyhow]. Applying too much flux is the likely cause. Other possibilities are: * flux contamination * solder contamination

Hi, Thanks for the info. How clean can wave soldering get? We are looking at a carrier that masks off most of the board when we run it through the wave, so hopefully this works. Regards, Grant Blackmagic Design

Hi, We have the spray fluxer, and I will have a look for the manifold. The guys thought they had purged the system but it's worth checking. Regards, Grant Blackmagic Design

Hi, Thanks for the tip, and I will check that out! We have some heavy BNC type connectors, so they need a bit of heat, and this could be right that we are then overheating the flux. Regards, Grant Blackmagic Design
