Does anybody have a practical experience with solder paste dispenser for small-scale production (prototypes, or 10-20 pcs. batches)? What ptich size is realistic? Let's say that the speed is not an issue, but the quality is. - Deni

You can get reliable solderpaste dots down to 20-30mil dia. with Type 3. Accurate and repeatable dispensing machine for X-Y-Z placement of the dot is critical. Here are the leading machines: http://www.speedlinetech.com/camalot/index.aspx http://

For what it is worth, we are purchasing a dispensing system including a Robotic Arm, Positive Displacement Valve (as opposed to volumetric displacement) and Controller. We have purchased this unit for doing lead free 20 mil dots at 30 mil pitch in s

Hi, Yes you can add a paste dispenser to the Quad 4C. The system will dispense DOTS and DOT patterns, no lines. We sell kits to add the dispenser. It takes about 4hours to install the kit. We also sell Camalot dispensers, benchtop & floor models. w

Quad made an auger style dispenser that mounted to the pick and place head. A long time ago, in CM far far away, I tried to add one to a Quad 4C but could never get the damn thing to work. The folks at PPM http://www.goppm.com/ might be able to he

Just buy a separate machine to apply paste. You'll be able to run faster, (by doing more at the same time) and you can probably find an air-over-syringe system for less than $2000USD. At the end of the day, that's probably less than you'll spend in t

Hi everyone, First post here. I am completely new to smt as well. We are a small startup and would like improve our in-house smt assembly capability from manual assembly. We are looking at small production runs, initially about a total of 200 board

My group supports a couple hundred lines all over the world. Most of them use squeegees but a few use either the MPM Rheometric pump heads or the DEK Proflow heads. I absolutely hate the enclosed heads. Flux separation, compaction, and the print q

Good Point. Also, what about the type of solder paste your using - Are you getting a good release from the stencil? What do your boards look like after you print?

We bought air dispenser guns that fit the cartriges. I can't remember where we got them - sorry. We built little aluminum "holsters" for the sides of the machines to put the guns in. The guns are hooked up to air with low pressure regulators. Wor
