UIC still manufacturers new thru-hole machines. Both axial and radial insertion models are available. They stopped making the multi-mod dip inserters in '91 or '92. And parts are easily acquired for any older models, there were a ton of machines out

Hi, to get better image you will probably need higher voltage(depending on how close you want to look). The closer you get the higher the voltage should be. Here are some tips for machine calibration: 1. Make sure your board is on focus. I don't kn

You are correct. Both the machines are "semi-automatic". The program can focus on the part you want to inspect and perform basic inspections like void analysis (BGA, QFP) etc. But you have to manually navigate and look for defects like TH solder fill

If you are developing a cost model for quotation/estimation purposes, we would recommend time studying a handful of existing jobs/set up's that you have, and averaging your actual CPM rate. Then determining your cost to operate from there. This wil

You are correct about the Manncorp machine, it was an MDC machine. The Essemtec machine is old(ish) but still runs fine, and last I knew they were still supporting it. My recent problem with Essemtec was in regards to software. I found a bug and sim

Hi, Rebecca, Hmm...two x motors? I'm a couple of years removed from MyData's, but, I don't remember two x-motors. Might be something in the My12's that I didn't see in my older My9 (and certainly not in my TP9). As to the small board...unfortun

It could very well be the Safety Relay located inside the ELMO PSU (Bottom left in computer cabinet). I just had the same problems on 2 MY9's within 2 months apart. the Part cost around $700.00 from Mydata (Now Mycronic). These fail commonly with old

I'm sure you considered acquiring a second FX-D and run them inline, the first dispensing half the board and the second the other half. That would automatically double your throughput. You wouldn't have to worry about a new process, consumables, et

Outside the MSD issues stated already (and I cannot provide a exact time not knowing multiple factors like Humidity levels, temps, exposure times, etc...) OSP might be the very worst finish to use in this scenario of side 1 / store on a shelf / side
