Sorry, I did misunderstand. My opinion would be: Assuming nothing else used feeder space, like tray changers, camera's, nozzles, ..... and assuming 1 slot = 1 8mm feeder position, I think 70-90 slots would be reasonable. A reasonably priced feeder ta

Hi, I'm a non-technical person working for a small MFG company that uses SMT. We are experiencing a high level of board failures due to "insufficent soder". Where is the best place for me to get data to bring myself up to a level of knowlegde on

First off is your CP4 0402 ready? Before we could begin placing 0402's we had to have a vision upgrade. Once you have that or are sure your machine can handle 0402 then you will have to get 8x2 feeders. There may be a way to rig an 8x4 feeder but i'm

I have the speed data set at 0.12S for the small caps and in addition to that I am using an overall tact time reduction of 14 to 16 seconds. If I use the default overall tact time then I have placement defects such as components being placed: 1. Twi

Do you happen to know where I may find a supplier for the "little mirror"? Google didn't produce relevant search results for Mentor. My method of inspecting possible bridging under a BGA involved a small flashlight placed up against the edge of the

Mike: We have provided many carriers for flex circuit applications to facilitate processing through screen print, pick-and-place and reflow and, in many cases, eliminating the need for taping the flex circuit to the carrier. Please contact me and w
