Would like help with Fuji IP-1 fine placement machine

Electronics Forum | Fri Jan 27 11:03:53 EST 2006 | bvdb

We are a New Zealand company that purchased a used Fuji IP-1 locally. There is no Fuji support here but we've managed to get the IP-1 up and running with just the use of the manuals. There are many things that the manuals do not explain and I would

Kester offers Tin-Copper AND Tin-Copper-Nickel. The Kester K100 alloy is a Tin-Copper-Nickel material that is very similar to SN100C. Straight Tin-Copper isn't tremendously popular but can be used in low-cost, consumer-electronics applications wher

Lead-free and Leaded solder in the same reflow

At my last employer, we ran a number of tests to make a "Hybrid" profile work (same profile Joe lists) . It worked great for everything but BGAs. The problem (6 months ago) was using parts not rated for lead free reflow temps. As the market fills wit

When I started using our ESV-304 the CAD converter would crash if there was a part already in the library with an alias. With the two cameras we can only put parts from one camera in the library. And our current library would be totally useless with

Grid lok system

It's cumbersome. Also if it catches a part partially after initial set-up, you'll get missprints. We had one and caused about 15% missprints. Once removed and hard pin in place, no missprints. Defeats vacuum board hold down too, from all of it's

Grid lok system

Personally I think Grid lok is inferior to the new Vacunest system, especially in screen printing. Vacunest is basically a bean bag that conforms to the shape of the PCB and then holds this shape indefinatley under vacuum, until the vacuum is releas

Wavemaster Larry must be new to the forum. What a nut! Sounds like a dude who needs to get his internet access taken away. In Riyadh, Larry, you'd get your arms sawed off for those comments! Grant is right. Hardware-wise, all thermal profilers

Thanks for the great feedback. Could you tell me whether you think it's a major handicap for Intuitive since they do not have a complete solution to address checking inventory and buying for cross-components? They sent me a doc for beta implementat

I just saw a pre-release demo for the 8.0 AML functionality, which should do the job. Our assessments and concerns with the different ERP's are similar to yours, for example in not wanting to go with antiquated implementations. My question is, if yo

SJ, We too have been running Intuitve for well over 2 years now. It does have it's issues, but what software package is perfect. The tech support that we have used has been EXCELLANT, with in 2 to 3 hours. We started with version 6.0, we have bee
