Hi Joseph It is not clear what you want us to comment on, however I will take a shot. 1. If the boards you are assembling are expensive it may make sense to strive for 50ppm. 2. If the boards are not very expensive, in my experience you would be

First, it�s GREAT that your defect rate of 282 is very close to your Boss� goal of 50 ppm. Second, your Cpk and your ppm numbers don�t tie out with our expectations. You say Cpk for: * mounter is 1.0 and �your mounting is 83ppm�. * printing is 1.33

We are going to begin using a 64 pin 10mm QFP with 0.5mm lead pitch. I was recently asked if we need to purchase our PCB with E3 coating instead of tinned pads when using the .5 pitch. The concept being suggested is that the E3 coating will give us b

There are no industry standards for eutectic solder-paste in conjunction with the life span of solder-paste. Whatever that is. Speaking of that ['whatever that is.'], what do you mean by �life span of solder-paste�? Is that: * Shelf life? * Workin

We use an evaporator, so that we only have a sludge of flux residue and solder metal to dispose of via the hazmat handling service. We also route stencil washer waste water into it. We use a 30 gallon drum and have it hauled off maybe twice a year,

MK, In most cases, if the machine is completely closed-looped (prewash, wash, prerinse, rinse, final rinse etc), then the water should not require changing. As with most inline cleaners, there should be a considerable amount of water loss in the cl

steve- once again I mention that the lead that is actually in the water is in solution i.e. the lead is in a molecular form that has attached to a H2O molecule. To have a minimum of lead that is below the regulated ppm, there cannot be any chunks,

Dave, you did not understand my problem right. We don�t get paste on the PCB in the printing phase of process. I have seen also poor wetting on OSP, as you descriped, but that is very unusual. I think generally OSP is better than gold/nickel if spea

Mr. Bentzen, Good morning. We at Fuji have no record of any customer bringing to our attention this issue. We have never had an issue handling these parts to date. The errors that you are encountering are related to an incorrect vision type. You s

Dear Sir I can assure you that I have personal experience with the part in question.This part will run with the recommend vision types ( 11 & 12 ). I noticed You neglected to state how old the machine was, and the amount of hours. The CP-6 series hav
