We currently use both machines side by side in our lab now and LPKF is by far the better machine. Both are comparable systems to each other but the T-Tech machine always seems to have problems of some sort and their tech support department isn�t ve

Steve is right, why risk cross contamination and suffer real legal battles from your RoHS customers you guarantee lead free to. Al is also right. If your customer knows they are pulling the wool over the RoHS watchful eyes, why would you want to

We are having issues with cleaning underneath leadless chip carriers due to their extreme low lying nature and I wondered if anyone else had any experience of this. Our process for years has been vapour degreasing with Triklone N, which works, but w

Hi All, I wasn't sure how this would turn out until I ran some production. As I suspected, after every nozzle change the machine dumps the first 3 pickups, checks the nozzle height again (function 30?) and then begins placing with correction with n

*and* board repair, does anyone know where I can get (optimum resolution) an economical repair on an ICOS MVS 100/32 vision card, or (next best thing) a schematic for it? Tyco can't provide a schematic because they don't have one (proprietary techno

Apoligies Steve if I did not explain myself clearly. We have made the same design using the same RoHs compliant components (which I am assured by the suppliers are process temperature capable) with both lead and lead free solder. Without wishing to

Hi, I totally agree. If I purchased a machine, and a company wanted me to pay some kind of fee just to be able to purchase parts, I would go nuts. What a terrible policy. I think, and this is becoming more common, that companies are becoming so sel

Mark, The pcb manufacturer recommended we bake the boards , so we did. I even weighed a batch before and after and seen slight decrease possibly 0.1g in weight. However we still seen some delam after all this. I am confident our issue has nothing to

All - I'm hoping I can get a little feedback here on my package libraries for my Mydata machines. I have four tied to a server right now, and I have several operators that apparently like to make packages, so I have some called 0805-05-A-MY-9-2 and t

John, As Dave says, never clean raw paste. Let it sit for at least 24 hrs if you can and use a plastic spatula to wipe off the bulk of it. The "drier" the paste the easier it is to remove without it travelling down vias etc. You will then have to cho
