We are in the process of revamping our conformal coating room. Presently, we have a C-740 Nordson Asymtek coating machine that sprays most of our boards with Dow Corning 2577. We are spending a lot of time masking boards and are thinking of upgrading

I cheated on the escapement length for the SOLIC plate and got through Feeder Optimization and Generate Program without any errors. Some progress, but no I cant figure out how to the the generated program into the central controllers on the Quad IVc

Delete the program and start over. I can't get a clear understanding the way you described the error, but it does sound like you have some kind of detent issue or a board stop programming issue. Depending on the configuration of your machine and th

We use a Wave Solder Plated Through Hole (PTH) assembly process to install a TO-220 Chip Package in the PCB board that we manufacture and have experienced lower yields on a number of boards with this component due to Bridges. The bridges on the TO-22

Is this a new assembly/new test fixture/program? Or is this an existing assembly that is suddenly exhibiting this failure? Capacitors measured in circuit will not necessarily measure their correct values. Active components in circuit will be affec

Armando, Is the problem in the same spot on the board with every run? If so, there might be something about that particular location that is part of the cause (ie. ground or power plane connection). It sounds like you're seeing blow holes, or insu

What I think it does is to calibrate the camera. You have your tube on the bottom and your camera on the top. For my machine(Dage) I have to put the board I am going to examine inside and select a point on the board surface. THen I just click on this

I've got a small smt board I've already got working prototypes of, which uses a tactile switch. I've got another much less expensive tact switch of similar size that I had avoided due to a difference in actuators I originally had no way around. Now I

SWAG does make a good point. The tool he is talking about is located on setup page 1 in the vision box and is labeled FP Mode (Fine Pitch) mode. BY default the setting is "0" this means that once the machine is put into auto mode the camera or visio

Hi, New to this forum. I am an engineer assigned to resolve a quality issue on our production line. It seems that we have been getting small droplets of flux on our boards after the reflow process. Occasionally, they land on a board to board conne
