We have recently acquired a Passaat SMRO-0406 oven. The manual is uninformative for oven settings. Can someone supply us with starting points for conveyor speed, Zone 1 to 4 and 5 to 8 temperature settings please? Our boards for a product we manufac

Oh, wait a minute. I have the complete control box from a CSM 66 III machine, Philips type 1306/40. That's the first one with the AC servo motors. The older ones had a stack of boards connected with masses of cables, the 1306/40 and later had a ba

The outboard I/O card is similar on both versions. But, that's where the similarity ends. The III machines (1306/40 and above) have a row of vertical boards that plug into a backplane on the bottom of the box. The 1306/20 and earlier have the boar

Does anyone here edit Wikipedia? I just checked and couldn't find the IPC link listed there. I still think if you ask what the OP asked then wiki is a good place to start. I did find this interesting link. http://www.ventureoutsource.com/contract-ma

If I need a lawyer I'll look you up. To get into that kind of detail you will have to look at the legislation itself in question. And I"m sure if there were any such loophole it would be plugged by now. But we had a customer that found something l

One of the best sites for RoHS info I have ever found is http://www.pb-free.info/ The details about the separate-able-ness of a part, or the concentrations of the individual substances are not stated in the actual directive, they are stated in the

Have you created block offsets for each board in the panel? We have rotated baords in panels but have not had to use block fiducials, we just use board fids. We place 0402s and 16mil fine pitch on multiple boards in a panel with boards rotated 180

Yeah, James, we've got block repeats set up so we're getting the boards built with just pcb fids, and very accurately. I want to be able to build with block fids, though, in case we have any issues with the panelization. It's happened in the past a

Yep, we did it just the way you described, I think. What we did NOT do was a block conversion. We just built it a board at a time, to see if things were accurate when we first programmed it. They weren't, so we did away with the block fids, adjusted

We've been using a series of relatively high durometer rubber molds to protect male headers from conformal coating here in our facility for quite a while now. They are black in color and are sold in strips that can be cut to desired lengths. Unfortun
