What is gonna impact boards without silkscreen on quality and mf

Electronics Forum | Fri Aug 17 10:15:54 EDT 2007 | jdengler

Good documentation would allow you to make the product without silkscreen. Our operators are trained to use our documentation and not the silkscreen. Silkscreen can be hard to use on many boards and could actually lead to mistakes. Silkscreen is m

Wow. Never have, never would, but that doesn't mean it couldn't be done. Mostly it just seems impossible to design a carrier clip that could hold both well...more likely it would hold one well and the other poorly, or both poorly. Anyway, is there

Next Philips question........

Electronics Forum | Mon Aug 20 12:28:41 EDT 2007 | slthomas

Is there any way to generate a printable (ASCII text)component info file? We don't have LAN capability on this machine, nor do we use PPS, and I can not for the life of me figure out how to print something to help the operator set it up. Worst case i

Thanks for all responses really good feedback. I have placed a number of extra supports underneath each pcb in the panel and by checking each print diligently we seem to be able to keep running. Not feaseable at the moment to check out leaded paste o

Solder mask color variation

Electronics Forum | Thu Aug 23 11:24:16 EDT 2007 | hussman

Welcome to Chine. Your best bet is to specify the type of mask you want and the type of finish you need. If not, they run what ever they have available. You may want to contact you board vendor and find out what they can offer. That's what we had

Solder Balls and Humidity

Electronics Forum | Fri Aug 24 11:03:15 EDT 2007 | hussman

I agree with Joris. But to add to his comment, the type of finish also has a direct affect to your wave solder process. Going from a gloss finish to a matte finish may help a lot. As for humidity affecting your wave - I doubt it. I use a water

Moisture Sensitive part - baking

Electronics Forum | Fri Aug 24 12:20:41 EDT 2007 | petep

I have an MSL3 part (a relay) supplied in tape and reel. From what I am able to determine, these parts require baking at 257 degrees F for a minimum of 8 hours once the integrity of the seal is broken for over 168 hours. How are parts baked at th

TH to SMT conversion

Electronics Forum | Fri Aug 24 13:46:35 EDT 2007 | consultacionbc

I'm currently looking for a tool to be able to convert TH components to SMT. Looking at each datasheet is to time consuming, we will be needing to convert TH to SMT for a customer. Their bards have approx. 3000 parts TH. We've got the Arrow to find

DI water testing?

Electronics Forum | Mon Aug 27 17:09:26 EDT 2007 | erokc

I have requested info on the disposable cartridge. I was told it was made for lab use and has an indicator to show depleated use. I will try to determine how the indicator works, ie. measures quality at the outlet (hopefully) or some other scheme?
