I'm working on bringing up a new conformal coat process/workcenter and have a few questions I'm hoping someone might have experience with. Right now we're manually spraying both coating materials (1B31 and 1A33 from Humiseal) using HVLP guns. I run

How you pack & ship your board level assemblies? I mean assembled PCB modules without housing etc. We often have small assemblies (cigarette box size) in the $5-15 range. We put them the (dreadful) red bubble bags and then on carton trays with carto

I am new to SMT and need to buy a pick n place machine that runs ~7500 cph and super reliable/no headache. My budget is $10,000. Either I buy seriously used (~15-20 years old gsm) or new Chinese unit. I saw this video and am seriously considering

EVTimov, Thanks for responding with your thoughts. I appreciate it! In regards to your thoughts, my biggest issue is we do use alot of 0402 components. This unit is probably built on their success of their simple table top unit which no one has

@ Sr.Tech, Most of our Chinese spares are Juki & Yamaha original & still bagged, just much cheaper. They wouldn't sell machines in China if all the spares and consumables were at European mark ups. Nozzle wise the Juki 750 & 760 copies are not 100%

The 740 has been a great machine for us. We've been able to reliably load components as small as 0603 (we've not tried 0402, but I believe with a special nozzle adaptor, you can get it to work) and place a 7x7 56 pin QFN with 0.4mm pin pitch with hi

Fuji makes great machines, just depends on the local support If you are not doing anything special I'd probably just go with the I-pulses as you'll get a lot more machine for your money, and have some left over for inline AOI/SPI or look at somethin

I have 3 phase power in my production area where I am running this machine. Technically the 110V was a wish as I have an empty office where I can put a number of machines but it doesn't seem like I would. So power is not an issue. I even have 480V

Is there a preferred method among printed circuit board assembly for accurately and quickly verifying the copper weight of a printed circuit board? I would like a tool and process that our quality inspector could quickly use to verify upon receipt of

Hi All, Would just like to course through this concern on a product that we are contracted to assemble. It is mainly used for an automatic hand sanitizer dispensing product. By design there is a restrictive value of current that it needs to dissipat
