Thanks for the reply. We are ramping up using soldering techs and convective hand soldering. We have investigated w/many soldering robot vendors. The number of units is over 100K. We will be automating using a dispense+pick and place for greater c

What about dispensing SMT epoxy (cures at much lower temperatures, than solder reflow), p+p components, run through the oven to cure, and using a laser selective solder robot to solder the pads?

Hi Efren, Did some simple math... - 100k units/month - 24 days/month - 16 hrs/day - 75% efficiency (ballpark questimate) You'll be looking at a line that does a bit more 50kCmp/hr with an IC/TH placer that does 3.5kCmp/hr (assuming 10 IC's /TH conn

If you want an inexpensive, good, somewhat dedicated, solution, then I would use a desktop wave pot like Wenesco or better yet Air Vac. The PCBRM10 or PCBRM12 from Air Vac may still be available. Can find on Ebay also. They have a quick change, pr

For what it is worth, we are purchasing a dispensing system including a Robotic Arm, Positive Displacement Valve (as opposed to volumetric displacement) and Controller. We have purchased this unit for doing lead free 20 mil dots at 30 mil pitch in s

Hello guys , we just started first trials on PTH connectors mounted in SMD. Our first results show big deviation of solder filing in the hole and also a dramatic decreasing of mounting spped on pick & place equipement. 1 - Did someone uses proflow
