From what I understand, in the PCB Info window that first pops up when you open CEditor, the number of fids is multiplied by the number of arrays. So if you have a 4-up panel and you enter No. of Arrays = 4 and No. of fids = 2, the machine will look

Hi, I have a SMD radio module that has castellated Pads along one edge of the module. The pick and place machine appears to place them very well but when the boards come out of the reflow oven then up to 20% of them have either rotated a few degrees

It's all about temperature versus time. The longer the over IE more zones the faster you can run. That doesn't seem to be the case for you so a 5 zone running a little slower will work. What many forget is that oven manufacturers can recommend what w

Wave soldering inspection templates enhance the visual inspection process by guiding the operator's eyes to a specific location on the board to check for the presence and correctness of components. I feel that PCB visual inspection template should be

In VERY general terms, water soluble flux is usually better at getting good wetting of the soldered connections unless you have a very well controlled process, in which case no-clean can be very handy (you don't have to clean). Water soluble flux re

Hi Folks, It's been a coon's age since I've been on here. I'm wondering if the community can't help me out with something. "Back in the day" there were thermocouples made by Saunders, Temprobes, with a design that would clamp on the board edge. Yo

I've got 2, they are OK but nothing to write home about. Paste inspection is very very slow compared to Hawkeye, service costs are also pretty high, similar snagging issues on new machines as others I've seen. Don't see many day to day problems, but

To isolate the MOT failure, try swapping the MOT card with another MOT card. If the failure moves, then the problem is in the card. If the failure does not move, the MOT card is not your problem. If the MOT card is not the issue, then your problem
