Chrissie also says, "Before anyone suggests it - redesign of the boards is not an option!!", so I'm assuming that re-design means panelization too. She's probably sitting on thousands of these unpanelized PCB's in stock. Now, for the future, as Ste

We replaced a manncorp machine with a MyData about 3 years ago and have been very satisfied. A Mydata machine should meet all of your requirements with the possible excpetion of the odd form parts but I am not sure any machine does those well. The

We are a high mix - low/medium volume company running an older MyData upgraded TP9 machine. It does a good job placing 20 mil pitch and 0402 components. We have not tried to place 15 mil pitch. Breakdowns/repairs have been relatively low consideri

Hello everybody, I had not noticed until yesterday this situation. Whenever the wave operator has a problem with a PCB (i.e. lifted parts, misprayed flux, etc.) they wave solder the PCB again "to fix it". The problem is that PCBs do not look pretty

Was wondering if anyone had any experience with Pin Though Paste with a no-lead process? I realize that some basic requirements will need to be met (i.e. Connector to with stand higher temperature, proper lead coating, ability to image, etc.). But,
