Throughput is usually measured by how many components are placed over the production day. Making sure it is actually placing parts all available hours of that production day optimizes the placement machines performance. The time the machine is actu

I am looking for a rule of thumb regarding the maximum ramp standard components (chip capacitors) can tolerate without failure during the reflow process. The standard seems to be 3C\second, but this figure is generally derived from the average ramp

Whoa! I beg to differ my friend. The cure profile is VERY critical in Adhesive curing, especially if your are screen printing. When you screen print adhesive you are leaving it exposed to the atmosphere for a period of time. SMT adhesive by nature i

I've worked with Panasonic, Fuji, Siemens, and Universal. I cannot rate Mydata since I have no experience with them. Here are my ratings based on personal preference: 1=Siemens 2=Fuji 3=Universal 4=Panasonic My reasoning behind this is: 1) Siemens

Hi Kevin, the profile doesn't actually qualify something as lead free or not it's purely the Pb content of the assembly that does this. Currently the understanding of the limitations of the lead in the jont is 0.1% by weight or less. So as long as y

The sampling rate on the KIC software can be changed by the user. The default setting is a sample rate of 60 seconds, so that, every 60 seconds the "old" measurement is subtracted from the "new" measurement to calculate the slope (i.e., start temp i

Yep. If speed is not an issue a Heller 1500 will pretty well do you fine unless you are trying to process a brick. A Heller 1700 will not give you any more heated length, so don't get sucked in to that one. However, they are a little more fun to pl

As I stated, the reply was direct from Indium, (thanks to Rich Brooks). The information regarding cool down rates should come from your paste supplier; not an oven supplier; not a generic article on lead free. I just went through the data sheets from

Hi, I can give my opinion in this topic since I worked with both machines. To say the truth, I would recommend neither machine. First of all, operating software is much quite the same for both machines. The TP9 is true that has a larger footprint ov
