I agree with you on the service issue. Fuji service can be a little strange from the Japanese Service engineers and the Service department at Fuji America has been cut very lean. I have been involved with SMT production for 20 years from Automation E

We had an existing Mydata MY15 line and inherited 2 Quad lines (QSP2 and QSX1). We eventually had to get rid of the 2 Quads (major software and hardware issues) and have replaced these two machines with an addition single Mydata MY15 and are getting

My Machine guy was a 4 year ex-quad Service Engineer. Prior to that he spent 6 years in a CM programming and servicing quads from QX toQ3c/4c q100 series. These are opinions. Nothing more. I have noticed that the smallest players in the market

It sounds like the parts are not soldering properly [have poor solderability]. This probably due to corroded nickel underplate caused by: * Nickel that oxidized, while awaiting overplating * Poor quality tin overplate, allowing nickel to oxidize aft

A very quick survey regarding PCB finishes for a lead-free process. What is the most popular PCB finish for lead-free soldering ? Who drives the selection of the finish, assembler or designer ? Are tin whiskers an issue for anyone ? I'm coming at th

I would ditto CAL, we have a jewel box 90 with the 5 axis and we love it. I really like being able to tilt,rotate,and move side to side front to back, Angle viewing under a BGA can be very informative as to the quality of reflow in seeing ball coll
