Hi Reese, The UIC machine is (was) good for higher volumes. Do you think these machines are less appropriate for smaller lot sizes and PCB's with just a few through hole parts? Also, are the UIC through hole machines still fully supported with ampl

Wow, great information! I have a feeling you are talking about some predominantly through hole assemblies with mostly common components. In this case fully automated solutions make sense if the volume is there. But these machines cannot do everyth

Hi, If your PCB is large, you waste a time. Any picture, you takes, will be with corner distortion. I suggest you to: 1. use AOI (manually or automatically) 2. try simulation of your PCB production before real SMT production process 3. use human FAI

Thanks for the reply Larry, I've checked the springs and they look ok, I have swapped them just to make sure. What I have noticed while manually moving the head up & down, there seems to be a sticking point, I have checked the rails and they are clea

a lot depends on the age and type of equipment you are using . Older equipment can have a lot of problems with smaller parts. If all is well with your feeders and machine you should expect something like 99.8 to 99.9 percent. some parts will be ident

For 0402's, if the operator is paying attention, our equipment Panasonic CM 402/602/NPM's run at about .001%. Again this is dependent on an operator that pays attention to the fail rate. We usually don't have too many problems with 0402's, LED's ar

Here is what I can tell you... The chemistry we use has adverse reactions with WS fluxes.Vapor degreasing can remove coatings and markings on some components. It can also roach certain types of plastic. On the other hand it works extremely well for r

Good day all, I wanted to get a quick poll from the folks running SAC305 in their selective soldering equipment. How are final results? How repeatable is the process, any machine related failures? pumps? nozzles? etc... I am just looking to get a
