My job is manufacture the custom PCB boards, as I know, most of our customers use Eagle. It's really common use. You can dig internet for more information about this tool. Or you can try frizing, EASYPC,KICAD or other tools. You can check which one i

MFG.com used to do some PCB assembly, etc. I had thought about signing up with them a couple of lifetimes ago, but, found the cost too much for my small company. *sales alert* My current company is in the middle of launching our beta services...we'

You should be fine! best practice for a situation like this would be to run a solder sample, either flux it and run through wave, or screen print, don't place parts and run through reflow. look for proper wetting characteristics if you see de-wetting

Wow! a 500, That's a Battleship there, old and may leak a lot but gets the job done. Mike Schwager is a great guy and knows his stuff. If he doesn't have the time or resources I would be happy to be his backup if you're in a pinch. I generally onl

I agree with 3DAOI.com, in that you should be looking at Cyberoptics. They have a great product if you MUST have both of these processes in line, and if you must have 3D AOI. If you are willing to go offline, and want to get both AOI and SPI in one

You're right. It is BS. I should have said "the operators are only WILLING to remove so much paste manually." When I brought up my concerns about leftover paste with the powers that be, I was told in no ambiguous terms that the operators will no

Hi, We just bought 2 YesTech F1 AOI machines and we could use a little help. We are using Mentor Valor tools which generated placement files (.ycd) but we need to manage our F1 package and marking libraries. We will be doing a lot of very short run

@ Westshoredesign: Go take the top covers off your XPM's. Tell me if you see flux residue on the blower motors and the surrounding area. If you see this, grab ahold of the blower motor and rock it back and fourth. It is moves, the seals are melted o
