Have a problem with Omniflo 5 (-97 vintage) pin chain conveyor. Occasionally the conveyor stops for a second or two, then makes a slight jerk, then stops again, makes a jerk etc. Then suddenly the problem goes away only to return next day (we switch

I agree Craig and I'm also not convinced DEK is really doing that well. I know they sell a ton of printers into Asia at around a 30%-40% discount to what they sell them anywhere else. A classic case of grabbing market share at the expense of profitab

Solder preforms can be used in SMT assembly for through-hole pin-in-paste process. In this process and modified aperture is used to print the paste with standard stencil printing, then a solder preform is picked and placed by a machine into the solde

Hi All, I am using YV100Xg YAMAHA Pick and Place Mounter Machine and I am facing a tilting problem of PLCC 84 and QFP 240 pins ICs. I deeply checked about their vision files and place them on the double sided tape and found them ACCURATE on their pad

Couple of things. Type T thermocouples are solder friendly. However usually a header with screw terminals poses no problem as the temperature differential is nil. Getting thermocouple leads wet causes problems because two dissimilar metals + condu

This does not make any sense at all. 0.65mm is 25 mil pitch. I could make all of my products exempt by putting a .025" pitch component on them and what is the downside? Absolutely nothing at all. Just put an 8 pin 0.025" pitch or less device in p

Good afternoon everyone, We have a customer that wants to specify "cleaning processes" on a board that typically has a "no clean process". Normally, I would not care, but I have one component on this board for which I question the cleaning process.

I agree with jdengler on the rotary table being skewed. You need a couple of dowel pins (1 1/2" long x 1/4" dia., I think) to align that disk. Each idler is held on an eccentric cam and can be adjusted to square up the rotary table by dropping the do

All posters here are right. My point was you have to design your board to the process. You cannot simply take any connector and change it to Pin and Paste. So much depends on your aperture openings, hole size to pin size, board thickness, number o

The loaders/carriers work well on CP643's in my opinion. We have had ours for about 4 years. However, if you crash them it can be a beeoch to get everything back into proper function. We have very little issue as long as we have our techs do rail wi
