Ari, I would suggest you make a checklist of all your requirements (not just large scale production) and prioritize them with weights assigned to each. Fill in the checklist for each equipment and manufacturer and you'll have the results out. I wou

Has any one considered the melting eutectic of the plated part verses the eutectic of the paste it self. Inter metallic solids can form when mixing metals. Thus this causes solder joint reliability. Also a lot of vendors are putting out pure tin prod

Yes, that is the unit I have tried (or as you say, a convincing copy). Sorry aj, some months ago on this thread you asked where I was based and the answer is Nottingham, England. I only check this site once every few months and it has been a busy

Well grant just to let you know i feel your pain. I've been wavesoldering with sn100c since January and let's say i'm still learning everyday. Some of the typical causes of bridges are not enough flux when the board hits the solder. Also it can be bo

Hi folks, I've been bouncing off of MyData technical support for some time on an issue with a MyData machine. Seems that this My9 likes to skip an 0402 placement at a rate of ~ 1000/million. Profile: MyData My9 Mechanical centering Midas only

Automatic Paste Inspection worth it?

Electronics Forum | Fri Mar 14 17:41:32 EDT 2008 | jerrysaise

Does anyone remember the takt time formula for the reflow oven

Electronics Forum | Thu Mar 13 08:39:53 EDT 2008 | ck_the_flip

Takt time (without a google search) is the rate (amount of time per pc.) at which stuff gets made on an assembly line, a workcell, a hi-speed SMT line, CNC machine cell, etc.... Takt time is governed by the gate (the slowest person, machine, etc. in
