We installed a SonoFlux ultrasonic spray fluxer, replacing the foam fluxer in our Electrovert Econopak wave in 2014. The cost at that time was 16K, installation included. We ran water based flux through it and as long as we kept it clean, worked well

That model comes standard without bottom preheaters. Bottom preheaters are an option so I would think it is designed for general use unless you have some very thermally challenging boards. As long as you are within the process window, you'll be fine.

Which one have better coverage, easier adjustment product-by-product, easier handling: the fixed head or the reciprocating one? Without any practice in spray fluxers, I think the reciprocating should be the better one, because even if the head haven

Do any of you repair your Samsung feeders for the SM421 machines in house? We have some that just don't power up. It's hard to trouble shoot without being able to hook them up. Do any of you have a stand-alone docking station to be able to apply p

Hello, we used to repair them fairly easy at my previous company. Many of ours had problems, because operators bad handling. If you have a problem with feeders not lighting up, you better try to switch the pcb from one feeder to another and to check

I'm not sure it would explain your feed issue, but the main thing that we have found to cause problems is the two nylon gears that pull the tape. The teeth get bent, and they don't mesh together as well, causing the tape to not pull correctly. Or t

Interesting. If all 52 of them fail, you need to change one special part that is controlling the air cylinders, I forgot the name, it was long time ago I used the machine. I there a possibility to test them on other machine, maybe some other company?

You could try changing the SMC pneumatic cylinder? We had a few that needed them replaced, we would get a pick error from them and the part would not be presented in the tape pocket (as if the tape doesn't push far enough to click over the ratchet s

Its not typical. Our feeders are 8 years old as well we have had 6 or so feeders in the last 6 months, we have over 300 feeders across two machines. They do see a lot of service and nothing lasts forever.. you can keep up with the preventive maintena

We have used it,, mixed results, cleans well, but can as you would imagine destroy plastic, i've had operators soak product and that caused problems, it also destroys any marking labels. we also use different Saponifiers to remove residues in the pas
