...problem? Are you not sure its not a "feature". LOL I have had the same problem...spent many hours tracing down the sequence of events which leeds up to this situation. No real solution...however, I use the key command zero set feature rather t

John, We have a Camalot 3800 that we have used to prototype double sided reflow boards. The flexibility a quick turn around work well for prototyping, but I wouldn't want to run production with it. The paste is 3 times the cost per unit volume of

Steve, Give MPM/Speedline a call and see if they still sell the SPM-AV, it's a shuttle style printer with vision alignment. It has a really nice auto-align vision system that will move the table in x,y and theta. It's not a look up/look down syste

Please let me rephrase the question. Running passive side first and curing the adhesive using a reflow profile derived for 63/37 solder paste. After curing the board is flipped around, pasted and reflowed. My concern is when curing the adhesive usin

Don't feel alone. Many assemblers have the same problem but aren't fortunate enough to have say in the design of the board. They're either have a capital invedtment in a selective solder machine or pallets designed to mask bottom-side SMD. The pal

Chris, With thanks to Eyal, this is Graham Naisbitt (NiceBit? - Talk to Eyal later!) We can indeed offer you semi-automatic equipment from around $8K US. Your budget is really low, we have to make a living too you know. However, this equipment do

I'm new to this site and hope to get some information. I'm probably going to get a ton of junk mail, but here goes. We are in the process of evaluating new equipment with the eventual outcome of installing a complete SMT line. We are not a high vol

Your customers design and your process capability would determin this (W/S vs. noclean). EX. Can you clean adequately for low stand off components? I have some BGA products which operate at 20GHz (atenuation and cross-talk is off the charts. )No wa

Let me make several points on this issue � POINT 1: Let�s be basic � Soldering and welding are examples of process that the quality types call "special processes". Special process. The results of special processes cannot be verified fully by subs

Fabmaster is Unicam is Tecnomatix now. Tecnomatix bought both Unicam and Fabmaster in the past couple of years. Their software is good. You can also try Cimbridge from GENRAD, CircuitCam. Valor has a very good DFM module. Each one has pros and c
