We have an Advantis and it's great for low volume, high mix (flexjet head). If you have good CAD data to upload, it takes little time to program as you can update vision on parts and placements while you are actually building boards ("NPI mode"). I

We have both DRS24 and DRS25 here. I think you will be much happier with the DRS25 as the underboard heating is superior, of course after a year of using the 25, it has its caveats as well, though minimal. I was a little surprised that you are havin

I have a project to evaluate solderability of various metals or plated finish. I'd like to tap in to get some advise. The project is to evaluate solderability of various metals or plated finishes for RF shield application with reflow. Due to the hig

we have pcb here that has a strange footprint on it the details for the device that should be placed on this pcb is part no. PSD833F2-90MI it has 3 different packages PQFP52,PLCC52,TQFP64 and the one that was in the BOM of this board was PQFP52. bu

We have this machine. It is a dream when it is working. We purchased from a larger company in town. Their in house service guy was servicing it for us whenever we could get a hold of him. There is an issue with the camera track. High pitched wining/

That AP can paste 0201's and has built in 2D. I would keep it. The AP series "forcers and platens" design is a bit fragile, but reliable and tends to last a long time. My biggest complaint is the cheap air hoses to the 3 forcers. After about 8 ye

I'm curious if anyone has figured out a clever way to errorproof this. We're exempt from RoHS so we have mostly SnPb products but some Pb free ones at customer request. Of course, we have methods to control moisture sensitive parts, but I worry tha

"Disturbed" usually means some form of movement. I would think your leads are moving due to warp as the board exits the reflow zone. Not knowing your profile, I would suggest checking your profile. Make sure you have adequate "above liquidous" and

My guess is that either the board house did not cool the boards down properly coming out of the lamination oven. Typically after they come out of the heat chambers they go into a cool down chamber for x amount of time, if they cool to fast or are pu

Harry,I know what you mean. You are completely right and justified. My father owns his own business and I see stuff like what you described all of the time. Yes we have done business before. I worked with you when you were with MPM and after you st
