Yes, we have an old Universal axial and they still offer independent machines for axial, radial and DIP components, but I do not have the floor space for that. Some offer "odd form" insertion machines (Juki, Hanwha, Cenncorp)which is the direction I

I have built a smt pick and place machine a try for nozzle change you can see..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrGPu49nKsw . I need help to improve it with vision system, any suggestion and Idea may highly be appreciated thanks in advance...

So I got this fully auto running machine line, that automatically pick, cut, edge grind, corner round the copper clad laminate, and I do not have a professional camara to shoot a video. How can shoot it with my phone, and still it looks amazing? Than

We have found Acrylic CC under QFNs is a failure mechanism in thermal cycling. The coating acts as a wedge and causes solder joint cracks. We do not coat QFNs. To enhance reliability we have the vias plugged with solder mask. This eliminates some

What your said looks like a acrylic coating thermal expansion causes small solder joint crack. Do you cure coating with heating, or heating after curing? Solder joint crack while you see resistor and QFN trouble? Clear and detail description of your

Is the component an LGA or BGA? If its a BGA, it appears like the component is missing balls, if its an LGA, it appears like the solder isn't wetting to the component. What solder are you using? The wetting to the larger pads in the last pic seems

It's a BGA component. Missing ball is not possible because we have enabled the vision in pick and place. Solder paste is OM353 type 5 Possibilities of Flux dry before reflow seems valid but I saw the board data it was completed on time like other

Based on datasheet you can have balls with significant variation(twice volume) 0.13Sqr/0.19sqr = 0.46 I would suggest you tighten the machine recognition control. You will recognize BGA balls that are very different in size and reject the part. This

Snap off is an option to make distance between PCB and stencil. If the distance not enought, adjust the PCB thickness too. Mostly we don't use snap off, I more prefer if the stencil is tight with the PCB - I know, this make the stencil lifetime worst
