We use an evaporator, so that we only have a sludge of flux residue and solder metal to dispose of via the hazmat handling service. We also route stencil washer waste water into it. We use a 30 gallon drum and have it hauled off maybe twice a year,

In a perfect world, the machines would be maint."guys" for the automation machines. Think "closed loop" system. Anyway, getting back to our reality job, we are still game for automation to improve thru'put, quality, reduce problems. The focus here

Hopefully it is just the part data a little bit off. But if that doesn't help, make sure the thickness sensor is calibrated bang on. And do the nozzle height adjustment. What are your nozzles and filters like, as far as being clean goes? I've put dow

Hi, There are 2 main steps to reducing EMI from a product. The first is to minimise it at source with smart design (keeping signal traces short, lots of decoupling etc). There should be design guides available from internet seach engines. Many ma

Hello, In a membrane generator there are almost no moving parts. So, the maintenance would be to replace the active carbon filter, and seals, about every 2~3 years. Normal life should be 10+ years. To prevent problems, the compressor must be oil-fre

We have a Kaeser AS-25 screw compressor with Kaiser air dryer + cylinders. The system has a water catch prior to delivering air to the dryer that automatically "spits" to a drain. It's not fool proof - if the water collector gets overfull, it will

In my limited experience. A Domestic Dishwasher with no water recycling like which is offered on some of the newer high priced models works a treat. Clearly this is batch. Inline filtering of the water supply is a good ideal. There are several ways o

Agreed. We machine all our pallets in coolant. No dust but a big mess still results in the bottom of the CNC. You'll burn through a thousand cutters if you try it on a router table. Just doesn't seem feasible. You'd have to take like 0.020" dept
