Nano ProTek Coating

Electronics Forum | Fri Jun 17 16:29:05 EDT 2011 | markhoch

Has anybody else tried using stencils coated with Nano ProTek? I did find that I could reduce my cleaning frequency and squeegee pressure, which should help to increase stencil life, but I'm finding that it seems to wear off quicker than I thought i

BGA connector

Hi All We are facing problem with solderability of BGA connector. After Xray we have found open under BGA connector. After removing from PCB it seems some copper pads are still gold. We are not sure why this is happening. We have 5 thou stencil and

Universal Instruments Lightning Head

We have 2 Lightning machines (30 spindle). They have been great. Only a couple minor issues in the 3 years we've had them. No troubles with feeders, either. The "Golds" work great and we have had a 3 or 4 with troubles but that is out of 200+ fee

Typically TH equipment has 2240 Unused steps if no pattern is loaded when running a pattern it takes up whatever amount of steps deducting from the 2240. With no patterns loaded in my axial machine I only have 246 steps. Would this be a time to relo

Toe down configuration

Problem with Vibration Feeder

Electronics Forum | Mon Aug 08 07:45:23 EDT 2011 | geb

Although I don't have the same model machine (ours is Samsung CP45FV) our Vib feeder had a "transportation" screw or strap (it was a few years ago) fitted that you need to remove before it vibrates properly. Ours has a on/ off switch on the feeder

Wave Solder Temp Verification IR GUN or Temp Dots??

Electronics Forum | Wed Aug 24 09:21:45 EDT 2011 | blnorman

We always used a MOLE on our wave ovens. From what I know of temp dots, they let you know if a temp has been exceeded. The IR gun we had also had the limitation that the further away from the target, the broader the area being analyzed. Guess it b

Flux suppliers

Electronics Forum | Sat Sep 03 12:54:05 EDT 2011 | waveroom

I have sold them all and you are correct. Over the last five to eight years there has been a down turn in customer support from the big two. I would suggest Aim solder out of Rhode Island. Their service is excellent, they do provide on site assistanc

Flux not foaming

Electronics Forum | Wed Dec 07 16:33:42 EST 2011 | russw

OK, still haven't figured this out. New flux, new air pump, new tubing, new stone, but flux still not rising enough. Pump has correct voltage. We've eliminated everything, but we still cannot find the problem. What else could possible keep the fl
