Caveat... I do not work for either company nor am I endorsed for this recommendation... We use CircuitCam for our needs. Works pretty well and allows you to keep several databases and is modular. Very pricey. The other software I have heard of is

I don't believe you are missing anything, Amol. Mainly, you just need to make sure that your oven handles the higher temperatures needed for reflow. Also, there has been a lot of discussion on how many zones are needed to properly reflow lead-free

Amol, Glad to help. We're experiencing the same thing with a bunch of our customers... Someone reads one paper and they are automatically an expert on the subject... Your 8 zone oven should definitely be more than adequate. Just make sure and pa

Hi Jay, I'm guessing that you have either: a) heated length of 64 inches b) a zone temp of 230C and not a surface temp of this magnitude c) Burnt pizza's 8 mins at 220C for a perfect non frozen pizza, however I find that the thermocouples keep fal

Sorry about that(My bad), they are copper. I believe the same thing, we need to reduce the appatures as we are already at 5mil. Our main problem is the customer...Their tests were failing and for some reason they touched that part up, and then the un

Does anyone have an easy way to estimate how much solder paste is applied to a smt pcb? I understand it varies on squeegee pressure, stencil thickness, and pitch of the components but I was looking for an average. I would assume that somewhere out th

Dan, If you are starting a library from scratch, it will probably take a while to program on any machine. Building a library is the most time consuming part. We use ViTechnology machines. They have a generic library that you could use to generate

Dan: OSHA is going to expect that you have a safety plan with lockout/tagout, blood bourne pathogen control, hazardous material spill remediation procedures, first aid preparedness, emergency flushing, etc. While not required specifically in the co
