Dr Lasky has a blog and has some posts on this subject. If I have time I will look for them later. Realistically you can expect a no excuses utilisation rate around 15%. You will believe it after I find the blog posts. Of course everyone uses some

It does seem to be very much hardcoded proprietary algorithms with all the parameters and maths done on the local machine. No knowledge sharing between machines or back to the vendor ("crowd sourcing" as it were) no cloud magic etc. VI appears to be

Alrighty... Problem solved - ended up not being a problem at all. So, what I didn't realize, was that the knead pressure was 5kg, and the first print was always kneaded, so that's why the set pressure showed 5kg. After it was done kneading, the set

Pretty much paste dependent on what is required. I am not a huge fan of kneading unless absolutely necessary, so 15 minutes seems pretty short, and generally do only 2 strokes. Multiple print deposits is used when, for whatever reason you are not see

You can try putting titanium stiffeners on the PCB to prevent it from warping. How thick is your stencil? More paste would give you a wider window however too much and you risk bridging. You could try over printing the pad at the heel and toe to get

OK, if has concern on void in the function pin area, you need cross section of the pins solder joints, to see how much area ratio of the void to solder joint area. Of course you need make sure solder joint (the toe and heel, height)meet IPC requireme

Hi , I can't find any soldering forums other than this and need help,hopefully someone can chime in . I have a Y- board that doesn't work, I can't find any blown/swollen fuse caps,but I have something else. When I zoom in it looks like the solderi

I'm intrigued at the relative costs of importing a MY9 from the US vs just buying an MY9/12/15 here in the UK where they are available pretty much all the time. We must be approaching the point where we see an influx of MY100 generation machines onto

You can use one but over spec it. It will be a non-linear problem to figure out how much each exhaust port exhausts. Also have lots of shut off valves to shut off exhaust ports that you are not using. We have some holes in the walls in the back of th

There's a place for both methods, but the advancements made year on year in 3D printing technology and quality give it the edge I reckon. We use 3D printing a lot and do it 'in house'. There's very little waste compared to machining a part from a bl
