All good advise, guys. I somewhat blame myself, that I didn�t inspect the machine. On the other hand, who knows, what machine I would have seen. Here are some e-mail responses, indicating, that this is not the type of business I�m capable of doing my

I�ve seen new table-top machines for $ 15,000 at exhibitions, but only one time and the same vendor didn�t show up the next time. Realistically, new machines capable of doing 0402 and 20 mil and a few kpph under $ 15,000 do not exist. Any used mach

Pr. I agree with some of the above responses. if you are seeing Delam issues with incoming PCB's the following should be check. 1) Check the OEM Print to what Material they are calling out to be manufactured with. 2) If they are calling out for S

No question that metal retains a lot of heat (slow to heat up and slow to cool down). But again in a batch oven, it mainly boils down to the heater. I know, until you see proof you are skeptical. I think by posting a url to product specs will

Thanks for your help guys! No, I do not expect a Ferrari at this low budget, we are not contract manufacturers, but only producing our own devices in the area of industrial control and measurement. And we do not expect to have 402 parts in the near f

I know that you were very specific in your email about your choices, but have you not thought of adding a faster Mydata? You would negate the learning curve on operations & maintenance, have spare feeders, & be able to transfer programs over. Regard

You can use straight forward Tin/Copper but it flows very poorly so solderability is an issue. Dosing with Phos improves this but need to stay on top of it. We have supplied some 3.8%Ag alloys for flow they work well but you get a small 'chill point'
