Wrong Sai. Quite a difference between assembling a board or a PC and building/assembling a screen printer. These systems being built in China will be for the China or Asian market only. MPM and DEK spent decades trying to establish themselves as the

I'm not talking about buying components. I want to know how would you go about setting up an SMT line from scratch. Or, maybe more specifically, how do I convince management, with data to back up all my arguments, that this is not a good idea. That

Is anyone out there aware of any standard or even a section of a standard that specifically addresses design guidelines for two-sided assemblies, particularly one that focuses on different processes? I'm being asked to produce information from said

Pardon the cross-post from the design board....I thought maybe I should query both populations. Is anyone out there aware of any standard or even a section of a standard that specifically addresses design guidelines for two-sided assemblies, particu

Quad4C's have their moments. If the price is right and you are aware of the machines limitations then you will be satisfied. The placement rate is slow, 1.2 seconds/chip. Don't buy any Quad if it has the CyberOptics Laser unit, the Quadalign unit is

Traditional methods of hand assembly are as you described. For a company that is concentrating on the 1-5 or 5-50 quantities you've described, you need to look for ways to accomplish your task with speed, repeatablilty, quality and at a fair price. T

I need some input on what good solder thieves dimensions should be. I am limited to solving my bridging problem with solder thieves; all process/wave variables have been adjusted to try to solve this problem. There are several of these connectors on
