Hi Doug, Read your inquiry. My company PRO-MATION has some exciting technologies available for both top side and bottom side selective laser soldering. Our work cells are great for low volume / high mix environments and are capble for both Tin Lead

Low end selective laser soldering systems are limited to what types of soldering can be performed. I have read through the previous comments and find that most have commented on earlier technologies (which do not offer the features today's system do)

The 3000 hours is correct. It was a VERY fast ROI! Back to the discussions on the earlier threads, some of this information is correct. If you exceed the design limitations for keep out requirements and your board tolerances vary, you can have twe

Good luck. Being most machines use the edge of the board to locate pads, you'll always be adjusting. Now when someone comes out with fiducial recognition, you'll have something. Not impossible, but will cost a little.

If you are looking for fiducial recognition the RPS automation sytems have a very useful vision sytem, however they are built by engineers for engineers.

We are currently using circle, cross and double-cross(#) fiducial patterns with SiPlace equipment. Most of the problems seem to occur when, in the case of a HASL fiducial mark, a PCB is topside reflowed, goes away for thru-hole and comes back for bot

You don't say what kind of machine you are using but several just use the edge of fiducials to determine area (and centers). If you are teaching in binary and have the ability to select a decision level (threshold), use a level half way between loss

Selective soldering machines are a good way to "finish automation", if the design of the PCB is conducive to the application with just a few components to solder. Your points are good. A decision matrix for selecting a machine might also include:
