Actually I should have noted we resolved this issue. After chasing our tails for a while, we found that somehow there was a static charge on the boards going into the machine. This static was discharging to the camera through the board stop, causing

I'm about to start a project to install some controls on our tooling for production, such, stencil, fixtures, feeders, press-fit tools, WS pallets, etc... How do you deal with that? I know there are some software solutions that may work, but what act

Just so you know, it is completely normal to whack the leveling feet of brand new machines with a 3lb ball peen hammer to adjust the machine in the line. The machine was moved several inches using this method. Brand new 180K+ machine. Factory FSE wa

Surely this depends on the scenario? Quite a few manufacturers feeders use spring contacts http://www.harwin.com/product-search/P20-0/ perhaps a bit like these, so your PCB would simply have pads to align with those contacts. Of course this relies o

Reels are 100% the best, vibration feeders should always be a back up, they are quite unreliable through no fault of their own. Say you have 1000 parts to be placed, and the cost of a reel is 100$ more than a tube, but the reel loads 10 to 1 over th

A rejected part from a reel is a little bit of a pain to use, where a rejected part from a tube is easy. That doesn't mean that I like tubes though. I have also found that some parts cost more when delivered on tape. First check that your machine is

I have been applying solder spheres to BGA packages. During the process, the spheres are run over a stencil for placement. The spheres tend to stick to each other (and clump), even away from the stencil pattern, when it is humid in the work area. I'm

We have a 6622CC machine for SnPb boards. A few things you may want to try: - Solderability testing on the components/PCB. - If the fuse holders or copper in the board are sucking up all the heat, try increasing preheat. Some fluxes (like the WS f

Got a failure while starting up our GSM, and hoping you guys have an easy fix that we're not seeing. We're getting a Timeout waiting for nozzle changer vacuum buildup. It seems to be occurring on head 2, during nozzle change. We've reseated all of
