Hi, Yeah, a google search of Bahodium returns nothing at all, but Guru added a TM, so it's trade marked? It's not the waste of space that's interesting with his posts, as they are a little entertaining, but I am worried someone's going to listen t

I am a lay person researching the application of non-woven material in stencil rolls either using branded material or non-branded alternatives for DEK, MPM Panasonic machines in SMT environments. I have read a number of articles referring to aqueous

Hi, That's good news, and we did outs with SN100C as well on Wed, however we are still working hard on getting a good profile. We have some large BNC connectors, and they are hard to profile. We also have wave palettes, and these might be too thick

I agree that a BGA may be the better/easier process overall, but it is not 3 dollars per assy better, I am in agreement that you should be able to handle QFPS just as well as a BGA. PBfree BGAs do not self align BTW, so one needs to keep that in mi
