Dual lane vs. single lane feeders for high mix

Electronics Forum | Tue Dec 12 17:34:39 EST 2017 | spoiltforchoice

A pattern emerges, but really I think it means plan/optimise for your day/week not a single job. Our machine uses 10's, this means there's a significant chunk of the feeder that is not easily accessible if something like a brass shim gets stuck or f

50% reduction in time. One draw back, the availability of feeders... You need 280 feeders max to change over a max capacity of 140 feeder machine (or a variance of a product mix vs. part numbers); then there's 8mm, 12mm, 16mm, sticks feeders that c

Hi ZJJ, I know exactly where you're coming from on this one! We have a similar situation here with a SiPlace 80S-15, rated at 15K max per hour. In practice, we achieve about 11K. The reason is fairly straightforward. The quoted maximum placements pe

Cheers Greg, It's unusual to have such direct access to manufacturers & their opinions. I'll tell you what really does get us, and splicing doesn't work well on these occaisions - big SMD connectors, requiring deep pocket feeders. You only get m

mydata tp9 vs philips topaz

Electronics Forum | Sat Nov 17 10:24:17 EST 2007 | etienne

Hi, I can give my opinion in this topic since I worked with both machines. To say the truth, I would recommend neither machine. First of all, operating software is much quite the same for both machines. The TP9 is true that has a larger footprint ov

Yes Aegis and Valor are good choices in terms of NPI, SMT programming , which one you choose will depend on other factors, Valor offers I feel a more rounded product, ie under one platform. Both offer CAD-BOM to SMT and Documentation, but Valor offer

Faster Than Lightning!

You are a very confusing person, one minute you want to buy some cheap piece of crap and speed isn't all that important and now you want a Lambo! Different use cases will make different machines faster if optimised. Or for the rest of us they averag

How to reduce solder joint voids of LED without using vacuum reflow?

Electronics Forum | Tue May 28 18:31:08 EDT 2019 | jlawson

Solder paste flux is main contributor, Lead termination chemical-oxide by products and PCB Plating-Chemicals. Reflow profile would have very limited if not no impact really unless is way off. Paste volume control and Stencil design plays a big part
