Tom, You've recieved some good feedback so far... keep in mind that both models of machines you have utilize a 4x40 configuration. This allows for even greater flexibility if your jobs are small enough. We also offer Dual Track Feeders to shrink t

Back from my days at a CM, the setup fee was only used for first time customers. Basically this was to ensure that if the relationship was to be permanent, all data formats, documentation, and special issues were taken care of. This requires extra

CAL, Thanks for the input. When I said chemistry I was refering to soldering chemistry and not cleaning. I believe this machine has the capability to incorporate a saponifier but would prefer not to run in this manner. Running a closed loop DI re

Q1: Suppose I want to qualify a SMT product for lead free, do I need to use a lead free solder paste or any other normal solder paste will do ? A1: Today, most solder pastes contain lead [Pb]. Q2: What are the impact of using a lead free solder past

Hi, I currently work on SMT department to uptimize all process. I've just selected the solder paste after testing 15 different products. To be able to do that, I had to create a procedure to evaluate each paste and to be sure that my profil was per

The way we do it is $5000 for 1 machine, $500 each additional machine....Anyway it is correct thinking when costing/pricing of a product or service is being determined. How is the person determining the price to know how many times you will call? H

Excellent question. In theory there is no correct answer to this question. It sounds like smtgod has baked too many cookies in his reflow oven and is on a surgar high... I use about 10 different basic reflow profiles in my ovens. Everytime we run

We form a barrier to contain the dye, but regardless it is messy. Actually, we no longer use dye, per say. We use the stuff machinists use for staining metal. Look here for hints: * http://www.ivf.se/Elektronik/dye_penetrant/edefault.htm * http:

I have been advised recently about pcb manufacturers, that somehow or other supply pcb's with contamination. Visually they are fine, but problems arise during SMT manufacture, ie solder balling, non-wetting on pads, and also during wave solder proces
