Does anyone here edit Wikipedia? I just checked and couldn't find the IPC link listed there. I still think if you ask what the OP asked then wiki is a good place to start. I did find this interesting link. http://www.ventureoutsource.com/contract-ma

Have you created block offsets for each board in the panel? We have rotated baords in panels but have not had to use block fiducials, we just use board fids. We place 0402s and 16mil fine pitch on multiple boards in a panel with boards rotated 180

Yeah, James, we've got block repeats set up so we're getting the boards built with just pcb fids, and very accurately. I want to be able to build with block fids, though, in case we have any issues with the panelization. It's happened in the past a

Daniel, We'd recommend MyData's as good low foot print, short quantity machines. They have a good level of flexibility for the price and operation. Considering what you've described, an older used TP9 would suit you. I'll caution you, though, tha

Can someone point us in the right direction? We are trying to find a formula to determine the "cubic mils" of solder we end up with after reflow. (No components during the reflow) Some of the discussions we've had about it produced the thoughts bel

We're not real clear about what you're trying to discuss, because most capacitors are packaged in epoxy with a solderable termination on each end. But lets throw a couple of ideas at the wall and see what sticks. If this epoxy is: * From the capaci

is there any standard gap between the terminal and pad if we place the glue? SMT-4 mention as per what you understand which is using glue at SMT without solder paste and run at wave solder for the solder paste at the terminal. Glue supplier recomm

Since no one has responded I'll give you what little I know. My last place of employment used MSH-IIs and an MPAV-2B. As far as I know there is no optimisation capability at the machine like there is with your Topaz. The programmer used Panasonic

Yes, calling meetings seems to be the way to tackle tuff problems without ever doing anything about them. Make spread sheets and "talk" a good talk so everyone thinks you are on top of your game. Yet you do absolutely mothing and wonder why the pro
