There is none, since we don't know your part or temp being used. A heat gun CAN be used to remove parts with no damage, if its controled. You need to look up your part on the manufacturers web site, find the process data (time/temp)the part is desi

We use a normal off the shelf (Best Buy) mini fridge. As far as the temp readings, I got some USB dataloggers from Omega and stick them in there. Download the data to your PC every couple of weeks (Outlook reminder). I also use these for our Nitrogen

Optimize the pcb assembly layout can enhance the performance of the converter for switch-mode converters, excellent PCB layout is critical to the performance of the best system.If the pcb assembly layout is poorly designed, it may result in the fol

CIM systems for electronics assembly have traditionally considered the PCB only. Final assembly "modules" are often attached to traditional systems to accommodate this common requirement for pre-PCB assembly, mechanical assembly, and final assembly

It's your first line, go with established manufacturers. Whether new or used it ultimately comes down to does the tool do the job and how well is it supported (labor/parts) if it does break down. I am a former field eng. with Speedline and now run

For what you have right now I would recommend that you use soldering iron tips that are made for component removal. until you get BGAs I wouldn't worry a whole lot about the expensive rework equipment. I would use specialty tips and a heat gun wit

We've got a problem with a fine pitch board that has about .005" registration error at each end (towards the center of the board) when it's printed. Apparently we've got a case of board stretch generated at the fab shop. I still have to do some mea

I am looking into pick and place for medium to medium-high production with semi frequent changeovers. I have been looking for a little while and nosed around at APEX also. I am not interested in any used products, I have been down that road before
