We use exclusively pneumatic feeders and can NOT control the force or speed of advancement. We get a lot of components (mostly LED-type packages) that tend to flop around in the pocket a lot and are flipped on the side or “thrown” by the feeder duri

Hi Zaza Thanks. Again, very appreciate if you advise me where I can get the SN100C solder bar that is water soluable. Now I'm checking Nihon Superior(Singapore) whether they have or not. As our customer's preference, we have to use the watersoluab

We are using Kester 985M in our Pillarhouse Jade. We only run SnPb, but this is a newer formulation of flux that is suitable for both lead and lead free alloys. Call the manufacturer of your selective soldering machine and get their advice. They ty

Hi, we have ERSA flow selective machine. We are using 420s-lf No-Clean flux (lead free process). It is water based. Before that we used for about 2 years in JS-EU-31 (KOKI) (alcohol based). It did excellent job (we moved to water based flux just bec

We also have a pillarhouse jade but opted for Kester 959T. The low solids content allows us to use a very small shot of flux thus resulting in low residue on the boards with great solder joints. Solderability is still good but had better results with

I am looking for used fume extractors. The type I am looking for would be a floor model that would support 4 soldering stations. We currently have some Impell Filtermates. So something similar to these would be ideal. Does anybody know of a compan

I recently bought a used Universal conveyor #5362I. All I need it to do is pass through boards from 1 machine to the next without operator intervention. The only way I can get it to accept a board from the upstream machine is by pushing the yellow bu

Questions are: * Pressure? * Heating ramp? * Solder alloy? * Solder preform or paste reflow? [We have more, depending on your answer] * 0.5 mm is pretty tight. Talk about tooling holes and measures to prevent flexing of the assembly * In time, heat a

If they sold you the lens and refuse to support it I'd demand your money back. I'd never deal with a company with this sort of policy - who would buy new kit knowing that the potential resale value is decimated by the manufacturer's policy of ripping
