Hi SMT Frog We are using an upgraded Mydata TP9-1 system to place 0402s. We do an electrical test plus mechanical centering and use the C14 tool. A few things we have observed/learned: 1) Is the machine not picking the part up out of the tape? Po

Hmm, that's a fairly old machine, even older than mine! (I have a CSM84 PA130640). Anyway, it is best to program the machine from CAD system data, I wrote a little program in C to read in the component type and XYR position, and produce the file in

I am not going to give you any names of equipment manufacturers as I believe most people tend to recommend only what they are familiar with. I have my favorites as, likely, most everyone else does as well. What I will tell you is equally important.

Doug, What I've done in past was calling them as 1206T.5, 1206T1.0, SOIC16, RESNET16, SOIC16T5.0, ALCAP4, ALCAP5 etc. T means thickness but for the ALCAP case 4 means 4mm diameter. If you have the time and patience, having a board and attaching a s

Thanks Dave. Talked to a few people at APEX this week and if nothing else, had my frustration reduced some. Of course I made sure I talked to mfg. people and avoided the design guys like the plague. ;) I actually picked up a copy of 785 a while bac

Hello all, Our company has always used HASL finish on our products. Recently however, we have a had a problem on a couple of boards that I have been told cannot be avoided with HASL, and we should switch to ENIG(electroless nickel immersion gold).
