Some software versions won't allow a brightness change with the next button. You should do a histogram test. Place a board on the worknest, then a smooth white card on top of that. Then jog the camera over the card. Raise the Z-axis to it's softwa

HI, I had a question for very generalise questionires from my Kitting dept with very usual enquiries prompting me that : For the after open seal solder paste tube later kept inside storage, how long that half way use solder paste can be still conside

Is 811 lead paste? If so, it seems to me that your oven settings are getting into soak awful fast in zone 2 and your peak is way high. Unless you are doing a thick board or something like that, those oven settings seem aggressive and might result i

We are looking to possibly counterbore a coule of thru holes in one of our PCBs. We would counterbore the top side, and the only trace is coming out of the bottom side. The reason is to mount some LEDs flush with the board. They have some flash wh

Steve - The weakened condition was my concern, and that was why I was asking if anyone had any details on issues that may occur doing this. Do you know of any details behind the risks involved? Qualifying a new LED will take a load of R&D resourc

I don't have any data (haven't tried this), but it doesn't take much thought to see that determining the risks associated with simultaneously applying compressive and rotational forces to the end of the barrel, not to mention chewing up the copper, i

Thank for the feedback everyone. The LED is designed to be soldered 2mm above the board, so that is their rational for allowing that much flash. And a spacer is not going to work because of the height limit of mating parts (I didn't design the boar

Hi Mark, Couterbore is possible in two way's during PCB Manufacturing. Couterbore plated and non-plated. Meaning that the entire hole will either have to be Plated or Non-Plated. Prefered Methode is Plated, to accomplish this your PCB house would

Hi, We have two complete SMT line and in this department we use conveyors for board manipulation. Concerning the wave area we are not full efficiency and I have to look for conveyors and bar code reader to make board manipulation an automatic proces
