Hi J_Dub (Joe), Thanks for the input. Sounds like some fairly densely populated through hole assemblies. 100 solder joints per board is up to 50 parts per board (I know you may have DIP's so it could be less than 50). 24 boards in a panel x 50 par

You can do some reading-up from Circuit Assembly Sep 96 and Jun 97. The problem is that they tell you only the good things and seldom evaluate them critically. I will be interesting to see what you want to do with the metal fence! (I presume is it th

Michael - Hello, you may also want to consider Panasonic JV - jumper (variable insertion pitch) - excellet machine AX - axial (fixed 5mm insertion pitch) - excellent machine AV - axial (variable insertion pitch) - fair machine RH - radial (various

Michael- Although I'm a Pansonic guy at heart I would suggest Universal equipment for your needs. Machines are plentiful and the number of support people and companies that are servicing them are much more numerous than Panasonic. Send me a private

Dear Michael Usually the equipment you need is: Universal Instruments 6772 Multi Mod IC Inserter. Universal Axial Inserter either a combination unit or 2 stand alone units one that sequences the parts and one that inserts them. Universal Instrume

If you are using these "keycards" as a visual inspection aid for performing First Article Inspection or in Process inspection of SMT populated PCBs then you should consider an automated system which is optical scanner based. They are inexpensive comp

We do it all the time for air pressure reasons. Use a 6 mil stencil, print right on the via, aperture opening 100% same size as the via, on an 0.063" thick board. Doesn't leave a bulge and plugs the air. You can have your board house do this for y

Most of the PTH components are manually inserted. Some are auto-placed by our UIC machine. The parts are preped before install, so there is no need to trim the leads afterwards. The boards go through wave solder. The UIC machine has a clincher on

Hello, I am new in this forum and also new in PCB manufacturing. now we have issued about silver open and short. we can detect this defect after auto check process and its to late to save our PCB. Is there any way to detect silver open or insufficien

Yes, we have an old Universal axial and they still offer independent machines for axial, radial and DIP components, but I do not have the floor space for that. Some offer "odd form" insertion machines (Juki, Hanwha, Cenncorp)which is the direction I
