Grant has a good idea, we started that way also. We made a tank out of stainless steel with copper tube coils about 18" off the bottom. Circulate cold water through the tubes to condense the vapor to keep the loss down. We used electric burners under

I agree with "Two Cents" that the initial cost is very high, however, we may be able to justify with savings associated with improved layouts (high volume mfg)... so I am also looking into laser depaneling at this time. I have stumbled upon three co

Hi Pavel, Great machines - very good for high volume - we did a lot of OEM overflow work and for fault finding & speed it kicked the other more expensive machines into touch. However... Programming is a lot slower initially than some of the othe

With the UP2000 that has vacuum board hold down, the Grid Loc hoses defeat the vacuum in order for them to exit the work table. Big boards require more girds, thus more hoses. Set-up between large and small boards takes time to remove or add the gr

Hello bpeach, We purchased a Mirtec for our first AOI machine after a side by side comparison of three different manufacturers. The Mirtec proved to be far superior to the others that we had looked at. Initially, the intention of the AOI was to prov

AJ, No overprint. We have components in very close proximity that precluded that. Also we have differing areas of thermal relief for the pads from a large backplane, from none at all to open blocks to individual pad relief. After a few more experimen

3d is good for initial verification that your screen printer and stencil is producing the desired paste height. 2D verification is more than sufficient during regular production. That being said, your best bet for a 3D machine is to go cheap - buy
