Thanks guys. Chatted with Ekra (Irv / Rudi) and we have nailed it down to the table LEFT side motor and it is specifically the coupler. As I turn the coupler by hand, there is some internal component under the coiled spring that makes a snapping soun

This video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fG9kydsUxR4&pp=ygUXc210IHNhbXN1bmcgcHJvZ3JhbW1pbmc%3D shows programming the parts in the step screen with the part overlay on the board. Is this a newer feature for the SM320, or is this hidden somewhe

Thanks for your comments. The table aligns fine but just makes the whining / ticking sound when using the 'REFERENCE' command. In this command the table moves more than the live 'AUTOMATIC' mode. The motors are working fine to align the PCB & stenci

So we have 3 new ITW/EAE Centurion ovens that all have issues when running nitrogen to keep the o2 ppm below 1000. It is always much higher, sometimes gets lower when no boards are loading in. They've had us replace valves and do an upgrade kit that

Does the 'R' suffix not mean a rotary head on the machine? This will then allow for that head to be a 'chip shooter' but does so with a lower height off the PCB being assembled. That is, the rotary head offers some gain in speed but is unable to moun

What purity? To get 99.999% pure you will need dewers of liquid nitrogen or a two stage system. (and a dewer will last about a month and a half even if you don't use it as it outgasses.) But you can get reasonable purity with a wall mounted single s

Hello colleagues, I appeal to your expertise in this matter that has taken me by surprise. A week ago it was decided to change the solder brand for the wave machine, (only the brand, the alloy is the same). The pot was emptied and filled with the

In a previous lifetime, we had a selective solder machine where I would see solder splashes in the roof of it. I thought someone might have been putting the solder extremely high. But when it was melting there would be bubbles that burst. The manufac

We got rid of our UP1500 2 years ago. I don't see the manual on the server anymore. I'm wondering if someone purged it. I do have all the ACCUFLEX stuff, which for our machine was pretty much the same. The software was identical, but with a few op

Hallo SMTnet. We have just bought a VXS Air 3.2/634 Rehm reflow oven. We are wondering why the conveyor chain in the oven is still running two days after the "Auto OFF" precedure/program has been activated. In this case the oven set to "Auto Off" Fr
