The Omegameter (or Ionograph) detect contamination by measuring the conductivity of the solution used to extract the board. This conductivity number reflects the sum of all of the ionics in the extraction solution. Unfortunately, we can't sort out th

Okay, I'm here in Colorado and I used indium 92J and loved it. My test dept. hated it! It leaves a pretty large amount of residue that apparently increased the pin maintenance. The company I worked for actually switched from this paste to another b

You are right about the very poor support for smaller customers. I had told them we were looking for another paste and now they have sent the reginal manager and the US sales manager has come by to see what they can do for us. All they keep saying is
