Thank you all for your feedback. While the new smart reel towers are the ideal, we simply cannot afford them or better pnp equipment at this time. However for the short term, probably putting colored stickers on the reel edge folded over so it is vis

Hi Dean, You may be in luck, we have another Infor ERP, Visual, and we have added MSL data via something called USER DEFINED FIELDS in the part record (Part Maintenance). It then comes through onto the part labels. It's worth asking you local supp

I believe the correct statement (I've been told) is "the process is no clean". The solder paste is "low residue". As a CM, in the past we had customers that insisted on a wash after soldering. We used DI water with a saponifier which had mixed result

Interesting, never heard of using wax as a coating mask. Not sure how well the AR coating would hold up to a hot alkaline wash (unless you have experience with it), but that stuff usually starts to flake off/de-wet if you just look at it wrong. I'm

Hi Wnb_Pemgr, I am not sure where your facility is based but I was hoping that we might be able to help with some of your issues? Hopefully we can support you with any ongoing problems you have or escalate any cases you have already made with Koh Yo

We recently acquired used MPM Accuflex. Immediately I noticed the live vision is mirrored. This makes it incredibly difficult to teach fiducials. I noticed some smudges on the lens, which leads me to believe the camera assembly was "worked on" at som

The piece that splits the vision probably has smudges or scratches on it. You're able to teach a set of pads. Before teaching the fid, hit the "Draw Correlation Box" button (I think that's what it's called, it's been a couple years). Then draw a b
