Hi there! After various trial-error experiments we determined that two factors are the most insignificant in order to reduce or make worst the issue, those factors are: Placement force: regular placement vs "force applied" to dip the component on th

I'm assuming that 18k components per month represents less than 100 boards per month. I've worked for both OEMs and CEMs and if your design is stable and your volumes are relatively stable I would highly recommend going with a CEM given the low volum

If you study how the process is done now, it isn't that different from what you describe. Instead of glue, we use solder paste, and instead of spraying it we screen print it. But not that different. For feeding boards we use conveyors instead of rubb

Tom, Hardware limit means the machine thinks it is at the limit sensor or a particular axis timed out before it got to the home sensor during the reset sequence. Go to your O/I map and see if any of the axis limit sensors are lit. You could have a

We recently had an in-house demo with the smaller IR bottom heater PACE machine. The machine was barely able to remove some components, but could not replace new ones at all. Also, the nozzle for the hot air would not fit in the tight areas of the ho

Hi Steve. Just came across your post. We are in the same boat with our Ekra X4 printer. Any resolution on your side? We have been attempting to track down a fresh ballast but the original (OSRAM HF 2x36 dimmable with 0-10V) is EOL and no where to be

Thank you for the replies. Neither the analog dimmable ballast (1-10V) nor the dimmable T5 2G11 socket bulbs have been fun to source. After countless hours of searching, believe that the Ebay listing here (Philips) is compatible: https://www.ebay.co

Hi SWAG/Rush/Steve, Thanks for your response, Currently I am running with 811 lead paste. Actually this problem not only effect for one assy. I got 700 models runing at my company, but almost 50% of the model I have problem with solder balls issue.
