Sarason, I will send you some samples. Note, however the .pcb file has a LOT more information in that just placement data, it has vision code definitions, part specific fields such as number of pick retrys, pickup/placement delays, speeds, feeder xy

So, someone is going to get a chance to buy a nice and shiny oven, eh? Summary from my notes of old thread on SMTnet: Some people melt sugar and use that solution to clean cooked-on flux residue. Dissolve sugar into warm water, spray it on the area t

Thanks Bob. I just didn't have enough experience with production SMT (vs hand-soldered prototypes) to know how finicky some things like this are. I've tried to do a lot of reading, but I haven't seen much that talks about things like this. I also hav

Hi all, I posted this about a fortnight ago so apologies for reposting but I'm not too sure what else to do as I've searched everywhere. I've got an older Jot router J501-21 that has had a hard-drive failure and operating software is gone. I've been

Hi all. A "newbie" on the forum, hopefully someone can help! I have a Quad IVc that has developed a problem on its Theta Axis. In performing the Homing routine it does not spin the nozzle through 360 deg as it should. It does a small turn ~45deg o

Hello, The only thing i can think of is the x&y ribbon cables. I know you said they are good but they could have an intermittent break. I would get a spare set and plug them in with the machine at a slow speed setting and see if it works as normal. A

Get in touch with your paste manufacturer. They should have a data base of different oven types/zones, and can give you "baseline" settings for a medium thermal density board that has been proven to work well with their paste. After that, it sounds

I assume that you're talking about wanting to solder to metal tabs that are spot welded to the battery terminal. These tabs are not meant to be soldered. The metal was special selected for welding. In the old days, you could buy plumbing flux at th

Hi, we have plans to build up a SMD manufacturing line and would like to get your feedback what is best for us to choose. We are outsourcing about 50 different products which are more or less low series (up to 1000 pieces). Boards are very different
