Bent nozzle can result in vaccum leakage resulting in parts falling during part pick up. Correct this. However, if your machine has laser/vision alignment, you should not be having a problem since these come in to picture after pick up. If you have a

We have parts that have electroplated tin over nickel. The mfg. assures us the minimum thickness of the tin is 5 microns. Cross sections have shown many instances of 1 micron and pits that go down to the nickel barrier layer. A request for thicker

Check any inventory you have of 0805 3p9 capacitors manufactured by Exxxx in Europe. Batch # 1878029. Mixed values of 3p9 and 220pf are possibly on the one reel. I have never come across this before but we have found 5 reels where this is definite af

MAke a new stencile and have the aperatures reduced by 20% in X and Y. This has solved 90% of all solder balling issues I have ever dealt with. Be careful with your fine pitch and micro-BGA's. If you are not having problems with fine pitch and 1:1

We have had similar problems and have abandoned use of MySpeed. I don't know what version of Mydata software you are running but have started to use the 'Hydra Preparation' function within TpSys 2.3 to arrive at optimised set-ups. Mydata advise that

Good point, but there are not many companies that actually have built machines that have worked robustly & reliably for 20 years. That is a little unfair to newer entrants to the market, but then again reputations are earnt. Regarding flexible ma

Hi Jay, please let us know your inputs from the seminar regarding SN100 Nihon solder from FCT. This solder seems to have a higher melting temp of 221C. It prints well and visually looks similar to SAC alloy. Have no reliabilty data though. Jay

HELP!! I need an exploded view of the early-style (AP-20 and some 24's) camera cube. I have bought a used AP-36 and am having vision problems. I also need the cube alignment procedures if anyone has them. I already have a "C" tool. Thanks Ron ro
