The way I view SPI is that is simply a tool. A tool to gather data to improve printing and prevent failures down the line due to screen printer anomalies. They can all inspect paste as necessary, work in closed loop with screen printer and provide a

Hi Mike, I use variations of both of these machines in a Tenryu FV-7100s and Samsung CP45/CP45Neos. Both have been very good machines - I would find it difficult to split them. I have personal dislikes of both tooling and support systems. I would ta

I have recently completed a HUGE screen-printing DOE. I used Taguchi methodology and man I got good results! Here is what I learned for what it's worth: (p.s. to the MPM apps guy I sent a copy to Tim Gillis, Lou Fuda, etc...) EFab vs. Laser: EFab

Ovation Products (devision of Airline Hydraulics) makes a fixture just for Screen printing and PNP machines. This product is called grid lock. It's tooling that is air actuated and conforms to the bottom side of your PCB with gentle (gentle enough no

I don't have time to go in depth, but I will say this.. Considering onsite Service... Please please PLEASE make sure your Service Engineers travel with tools. I'm very tired of having to scramble to find tools for FSE's who show up at my facility wit

I've been an electronics hobbyist for many years (almost 50!, that's scary), and I'd like to expand my "skills set" to include being able to work with SMT components. I know I'll need some sort of magnifying viewer, 35x has been suggested. I'll also

Paste Inspection is critical to the overall printing process. There are at least 40 variables to this process. The idea of using only 2D printer inspection or worse yet, 3D (marginal at best) printer inspection demonstrates a serious gap in coverin

A good set of fixtures are what you need to get it done right. Since we are in the same area, I would recommend give ATD (Advance Tooling Design)a try, they located in San Jose. We been using fixtures from them for years. We build thousands of Fle
