I don't have an opinion on nano coatings since I haven't tried them. Our suppliers keep pushing it so I'll eventually check it out. The reason I zeroed in on the FG foil is because I almost fell into that trap. Several years ago I wasn't aware the

I like AJ's answer. Count-On-Tools makes a neat holder for presenting short strips of taped SMT components to a placement head. http://www.smtnet.com/company/index.cfm?fuseaction=view_company&company_id=51639 Let us add to this by saying, we don't

Thanks dyoungquist and tech 1, Things have been crazy lately installing Mylabel and keeping up with customer demand. I have been looking into buying more reels for the high runners (caps, resistors, IC’s that we use a lot) and I think we have a shot

Talk to your buyers about forcasts. How do they know how to what to buy? They should be able to tell you what parts are going to be used on all the upcoming assemblies. Just make sure you don't get a purchase requirement report. That wouldn't inc

I have had Selective issues such as yours on two very different Selective Solder Machines. I was able to eliminate these issues by using Alpha EF-9301 wave flux with any SAC305 solder. It's a more aggressive flux, but really made the difference. Anot

Not the best situation in the world, but you know that. Check with printer equipment suppliers [eg, DEK, MPM, etc] for a product called "Stencil Clean Wipes." Back in the old days, we'd: * Wipe the stencil with a solvent soaked wipe * Put the sten

We run both. We just bought a new Horizon 03iX with all the bells and whistles. Nice machine, great install and training. We've already saved a ton of labor using the adhesive dispense system. Both brands are very good. The MpM's are built heavi

In the same way my BMW gets me to work and back, it is a much different class (pricewise)than a Toyota Camry, yet both accomplish the same goal. Every day. Is the BMW a "better" car? Is the Camry a lesser vehicle, even if it gets me to work on time

I'll try swaping cards and see if the problem follows the card. So far, my guess would be the motor going bad. I did change the brushes, X wagon cables and every cable that goes to the midas unit. But that didn't fix it. The problem is that to replac
