Loctite's new GC 10 paste allows for some pretty extended print cycles. I was skeptical, but the stuff doesn't seem to ever dry out. I've had overnight print to place cycles work at room temperature, and they spec a stencil life of three days. Might

Hello SMTnet team, I have read before that silver content on solder joints is ok at around 2% total silver content. Does anyone has experience using SN62/PB36/AG2 BGAs on hard gold (10 micro inches) PCB surface finish? Any drawbacks? Thanks Joel

Radio Shack used to sell etching solution in a pint bottle. There may be a hobby shop that does as well. Pay attention to the Handling/PPE/Disposal requirements!!! Not to take you away from your venture, but there are some companies that specialize

I'm not personally familiar with the 265 but it sounds like the machine's board stop actuator is not retracting or a sensor that detects that actuator position is stuck (probably a reed switch.) If your stop is not retracted, then the sensor is telli

If it is an ECU you will need power and water. It will keep temp and humidity at your setpoint. I have used them before and was not overly impressed with them. Your process requirements may be more stringent than mine was though. If you have very d

I'm not sure- I'll check that. The machine is running ups version 3.2.2c. Previously I just went into the order list and selected to move the component in the list, put it at the end before the repair step and added an end block step after the compon

Not sure what you mean. 0201's and 0402's are both on 8mm feeders. Juki's will do simultaneous picks an all 8mm feeders no matter the component size. Your feeders need to be maintenanced and calibrated to reliably pick 0402's and 0201's. I hav
