Hi Chunks, That would be due to Mr Dumont asking for recommendations on types of ovens! Yes, I agree paste is a major factor, as is type of board (size, construction, palletisation, heat requirements etc), but also real experiences from users help

Some GD saleman [Oops, make that very nice saleman. He took me along for lunch.][Just kidding, all you sales types out there. You know how much I like to put burrs under your saddles. ;-) We kid because we care.] got into the catacombs to wake-up o

We are having a problem with our AP-24x printer. When the vacuum motor spins up we get a 60 hz buzz into the DC drivers for the forcers and the stencle wiper. We also indicate a main power drop from 115 vac to 80 vac. The vacuum motor checks out good

Good Morning Everyone, This whole lead free thing has really stirred up the hornets nest! I agree that it doesnt make any technical sense to replace a cheap toxic material for an expensive toxic material that costs more, is more expensive to process

We are having a problem with popcorning of a plastic BGA that has been under careful humidity control. We have had problems in the past and some have been related to too much trapped internal solvents from the die attach epoxy. We did a life time b

Hi, The MYDATA is a very flexible machine, however it's slow as a chip shooter, and really needs Myspeed to work to get as much speed as possible. It's also wasteful to get chip placement speed because you need to repeat feeders of the same componen

I looked breafly at this alloy. My concern was that I had already implemented a SAC 305 alloy at SMT. So any of my mixed technology projects would one alloy (SAC 305) on one side (topside) and a different alloy (SN100C) on the bottomside. Most articl
