If you're questioning their motivation for testing accurately, I'm sure they would *love* to sell you stuff to balance your alloy composition ratios or just replace all of your solder outright. IOW, I don't think you need to worry about them paddin

I am running Autoprogram ver. 5.31 and need to split a large program so that it can run on 2 seperate Quad 4C assemblers. When I generate the program I select the "Breakup Program for Seperate Central Controllers" box but I do not get 2 seperate prog

You are correct. There is an option under Generate Program to Breakup program For Separate Central controllers. I choose this option and then it asks for a suffix to add to the program name. I am using Head as the suffix. After program generation I s

Yep there are nozzles on both machines. This is a very quirky program. I remember when I first loaded it I couldn't get it to run. I reloaded several times, double checked all of the settings in the autoexec and config.sys files but couldn't get it

Oddly enough, I find it more often than not that the supply type is not mentioned in the data sheets. And if the original author was saying 0603 in a metric package, then it would be in 8x2 tape. Even in the US, some companies use the metric names

Maybe..... ...but it's not like I was wrong. I was only trying to help. And I certainly didn't belittle him in any way shape or form. So why do have to get all up in my Biz-nass about it? Huh? You wanna go? Let's go! Go ahead...make your move...I've

AOI SYSTEMS: MVP, TRI or CYBEROPTICS ?

Dominik, We have also been looking at MVP locally for micro electronics applications. The 850G appears to have far greater capability with regard to all the backend semi processes, and provides real measurements for our stats systems. I have seen

During soldering, the gold dissolves into the solder connection. You solder to the nickel. The gold protects the nickel from oxidation. Corroded nickel is very difficult to solder. So if your gold is thin, it may not protect the nickel from corrosion
