Bulk parts cassettes... another idea that must have looked good at the time. Too bad the manufacturing trend went from low mix / high volume to high mix / low volume. I guess the feeders have to be too complex to feed the part properly to the machine

I am really reaching for the crack pipe now!! We recv'd a quote from a CM with a set-up charge and a Manufacturing charge. Is there a generic rule of thumb or ratio between Set-up and Manufacturing? One would think the manufacturing would be cheaper

Se�or Tech Possibilities are: * The vent on the drain line is blocked. Generally when this happens, the blockage, like come critter building a nest in the pipe, is found on the roof. In this case, the smell would be constant. * Somewhere, the drai

Would you be able to use a piped water eye wash system? That way the water is always fresh. I'm sure I saw a variety of such sytems when I was looking for a stand for our eye wash station. The big problem of course is if you don't have plumbing wher

The right way is to know what velocity numbers would net you the required flow for your oven and then measure with a manometer. The required velocity is primarily a function of pipe diameter (and blower rpms) but length and how bendy it is contribute

Paul We've seen "cold welding" of solder paste when dispensed improperly. It occurs in the narrow confinds of the nozzle when someone tries to pipe too much paste, too quickly. The friction of all those little solder balls and paste juice fighting

The temperature that will melt solder holding top side SMT components during wave soldering depends on the alloy of that solder. So, for example, you'd expect: * Near eutectic SnPb solder to melt around 215*C. * LF to melt around 240*C. It's common

We use an older industrial dish washer to clean our boards, and it works out pretty well. Economical, at least. I'd like to upgrade to an in-line, but it's not in the budget, yet. We've got ours piped with de-ionized water, and a hot water heater

That's like asking the IRS to do your taxes for ya. Once they're in your building, they will not leave until they go thru top to bottom. Remember, EPA Field Investigators are "supposed" to find things wrong. They may not find any thing wrong with
