I receive no benifit from this, but I have been using Juki pick'n'place for over 7 years. Juki machines are easy to learn and have been very reliable for us. Their service and support have been top-notch all the way (at least here in the US). Thei

I know Juki has the headquarters in NC, but they have a support office in the Silicon Valley with spare parts. I know they go to the NW area quite often from that office. They offer their customers 7-day/24-hour free phone support (including holida

Thanks Rob, $7k, for a bag of silly putty with a magnet! This is supposed to be the same cost as tooling pins and much cheaper than dedicated tooling? I can't remember ever spending 7k on tooling unless I had 20 unique plates made. I wonder how ma

Now that is creative! I going to talk to my machinist. I need a bar of aluminum machined to accept 24 pigs (ass up of course). Then I need a "squeezing" mechanism to apply a proportional pressure to the pigs abdomen to make the "ass gel" support t

First, voiding is a process indicator. Next, as you say, the profile is a significant contributor to void formation. Finally, when considering the "material factors" that drive void formation, solder paste formulation is the most critical. Discuss

I have been given a v-groove score keep out area dimension of 1mm from the edge of the groove to the component body; except the dimension becomes 5mm for ceramic components. 5mm seems like a very large value. Does anybody have experience with this? I

Hi, The solder paste is SE5-M951X-9. Comparing with the previous one we used, we are having much more tombstoning problems. The reflow profile is such as: room temp to 140C: 85~95 sec 140 to 170 C: 80 sec 170 to 200 C: 20 ~ 23 sec Above 200 C: 44 ~

Our company is transitioning to TS16949 this year from QS9000. We've begun to wrestle with the subject of improving the control of our production machine programs without creating unneccessary signoff's/documentation. Does anyone have a suggestions

Not necessarily on inspection but in reliability. Do you want to ship product that will last only a few years or product that can last more than five years? X-Ray process will let you know if you have exposed your BGA's to an aggressive profile or a
