Not sure exactly what kind of coverage your looking to get but we use Dow Corning 3-1944, it's room-temp cure and rather thick, (think warm honey). But we have found it useful on several projects. http://www.dowcorning.com/applications/search/produc

Thanks for the tip. I'm still getting familiar with the machine by reading the manuals as I have time. Was wondering what type of solvent you use to clean the dispensing mechanism parts? Or do you not clean anything and simply dispose of the syring p

To be fair, making lots of the same PCBAs of the same relatively low thermal mass is not particulary challenging for any of the major manufacturers if you have enough heating and cooling zones. Probably key for you would be local support for servic

Hi Rob, Thanks for the response. I am not aware of any feeder crashes. We aren't real sure where the scratches came from. They do not appear to be too deep but are at the edge of acceptable. We are still up and running. I don't think I am comfortabl

No matter in selective soldering or wave soldering process, higher pot temperature and longer wetting time can increase IMC thickness and joint strength(reliability), but as Daivf said, you need to care if the DIP component and bare PCB was damaged b

I'm puzzled how many people spent time to answer this obvious trolling question. If to make production was as simply as to buy and install machines everyone with cash would be PCB producer and PCB assembler. In this regard I have dream... I want t

I assume that not all switches are fine, or tuned right. Check sensitivity - some switch might be sensing much earlier, and that's why never goes to actual position.In general their equipment has the right design, but I had to fix each individual pi

I ended up finding that the laser switch on the exit side was actually getting tripped by the conveyor itself. Had to move the beam to be between the belts and it started working properly again. It seems like the 'fixed' conveyor side actually cam

Hi Rick, we have seen this issue before with small volume and prototype parts coming in from catalogue suppliers, where they are decanted from the original manufacturers packaging and sold in smaller batches. Also after going out for programming.
