Rob: How do you rework blow-holes and pin-holes? PTH plating thickness SB 1 thou or greater. Epoxy is hydroscopic. So, you should control the environment and/or bake the moisture from the boards before soldering. Search the fine SMTnet Archives f

We use the Gel Flex from MPM. Made a different base for each machine. Works well for most boards, but you may need additional pin support for larger boards. No tools, no vaccum hoses, no missprints (which Grid Lock is famous for), and best of all

Here's another outfit that makes a board support system: http://www.production-solutions.com/ The Gel-Flex may fit in a DEK. The gel blocks and pins in the kit are 4cm high. Not sure what the centernest depth (from conveyor belt to bottom plate) i

I used the Rosenthal sheeter or slitter when I worked in flex circuits. Do you want to go from roll to sheet sheet stock? These machines worked very well for us. http://www.rosenthalmfg.com/

Does anyone use this product? If so how well does it work for you? Do you purchase it straight thru speedline, or is there another vendor? Thanks for any info.
