One of our former SMT Technicians used a component we pick and place for this purpose. The component is a bond pad that is soldered to a ceramic PCB during SMT assembly. The assembly is now obsolete. I tried looking up the manufacturer's part nu

Bill is no longer with SMT Research. The camera cal/replacement on CP6 is better off left to the pros.Unless your techs are VERY familiar with the procedure. Call Greg Frazier @ 704-995-4591 he is with SMT Resource. Greg has done work for us in the

Realize this thread is a bit old, but others may start inquiring soon... Just learned Biral USA in McLean, TX is no longer in buisness. Does anyone know of any other stateside distributers for the Biral T&D? Called 'Grainger' and they do not carry it

Wow RealChunks! What happened to that firey b#tchey Asian temper of yours? :-) Speak your mind and forever hold your peace! Here's what I know about Lead-Free Wave Soldering: 1.) Hotter pot 2.) Longer dwells Good info. on fluxes, by the way.

I have a tendency to agree with CK Experience and accomplishments in wave soldering are more valuable then the degree. Remember wave soldering is not taught in school although it is a vital process in the electronics assembly. The quality and relia

What does your top side wetting look like? This is a perfect case where top side wetting will tell you when you have a good joint. Without seeingor knowing your process, I would suggest either more pre-heat or longer dwell in the solder. Either on

We know virtually nothing about your process, but here's some guesses: * Turn-off the nitrogen * Change from Sn63 to Sn62 * Change to a low-tombstone paste * Change the thermal recipe: slower ramp, longer soak * Do a better job of placing components

Dana, I forgot that the MCS30 also needs host software installed. Did you recently buy this or have you had it for a while? If you have recently purchased it off of a dealer they may have what you need. You could try contacting some of the used d

With Pronto Place I can generate a Mydata program and automatically merge an Excel bom in about 20 seconds. Takes longer if I need to produce assembly doxs...but still faster than Circuit Cam...have used the Mydata macro in the past also, but it does

Same here, I've been programming Mydata placement machines using CircuitCAM since 1999, at 2 companies. With an ASCII CAD file imported and simple BOM scrubbing, we can get programs directly output to our Mydatas in less than 5 minutes. Developing as
