Most pick-&-place machine companies will give you their data from the IPC-9850 results in terms of placements per hour. I see it on many machine specification sheets these days.

Bake your solder mask and then solder coat. If you are going to put an immersion finish like Osp, gold, tin or silver you would have to do a Micro etch to clean the copper prior to placing the surface finish. Regards, Board House

If you have a glob of epoxy on your board, it will be difficult to stencil you paste on that side. Dispensing paste may be a better choice.

Red Wing has some. I have had mine for 4 years, may not be real pretty but they still work fine. I have never priced any others but they aren't cheap. pr

Questions are: * Are you sure there was solder on the pad prior to placing the component? * Is there solder on the lead, but not on the pad?

Sr tech, It is in the PCB header information. F2 from the layout editor then F1 to view through the camera. Regards Chris

Sr. tech, The mount tool test position is what I am refering to. The function of this is to determine the placement plane of the board. The mount plane will change if the board is thicker so thickness is relavent. regards Chris

Have you tried running the machine in stepper mode (Ctrl+S). This will allow you to hold and view the machine at each stage of the placement cycle. This may help determine if it is false placement, vacuum or kiss-off. We find this useful when trying
