Looking for a company to recycle plastic reel and I.C. tubes. I already recycle trays with Smart Cycle (formally Semicyle). I hate to throw that stuff away. The local recycling places only recycle plastic 1 and 2. Most of the reels are 3's.

I would like to know if there are any detailed studies or sources of information regarding the use of round pads vs square pads with chip components (0402 and greater).Thank you.

Never read anything like that, but with the same courtyard, you have the ability to position less material with a circle than a square. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for a heirarchy of sources from which to select pad dimensions

It could be that it's been a long time since Siemens has sold a machine. Is it true that they licensed that twirly head S20 wachajigger from UIC?

Don't forget that the great American company UIC sells the wonderfull HSP machines, or are they Sanyo?

Siemens guys say they bought the rights to the twirly thingy (and everything else) outright. I got the chance to work with both an early verson from UIC, and the next Siemens improvement on it. UIC should have been ashamed.
