Any decent 7-zone reflow oven rated at 300 degrees C will handle lead free. Prices for used ovens in this range begin around $15K. For waves, the prices are all over the map. Send me a private e-mail and I'll introduce you to a friend of mine who sel

Hi CW, mine is not the answer to your questions, but I suggest you to take a look of the latest level of J-STD-033B (October 2005) The J-STD-033A was from July-2002, and several important points are different from latest level. For instance, in Cha

The question to ask is not so much in contamination of this mixed technology metallurgies, but rather, will this metallurgy successfully coalesce into a reliable interconnect? I find in my consulting travels worldwide that many of my clients do not

I'm only peripherally aware of CircuitCam; we were adopting it in a past-life, and I wasn't terribly connected with the adoption. However, I thought that it did have the capability of optimizing a job to a production line (assuming the two machines

Not at all Jon. I have been using my CSM66 for 2 years and I think it is a very stable and abiding machine. It can place 0603 and 0.65mm pitch SSOP without any problem at 3000-3600cph. Easily and cheaply maintainable, so good choice for a "garage-wor

The CSM84 I have is 63" (1600 mm) wide, 57" (1450 mm) deep, and 54" (1372 mm) high, without the turret. The CSM84 is rated at something like 1600 Lbs (728 kg). I had to cut a hole and install double doors to get mine in. I can't imagine "carrying" t

Whoa dude - slow down- maybe great beer money but if you don't have good environmental and ESD controls in your shed, all your suds slush fund will evaporate in RMA's costs. A small pick and place (table top) would do. A manual screen printer would h

From what I understand, the major reason Sn prices recently escalated was a crackdown on black market Sn mining in Indonesia, where most of our Sn originates. Add to that increased demand (not necessarily from RoHS, but from China, India, and other

My Quad IVc's will also do the same thing. Mine are equipped with CyberOptics scanners, not QuadAlign. The Cyberoptics scanners do go bad and once they do, they get very warm to the touch and at the same time, if the Quad is reset, the theta axis wil
