Wow, these are still around? Don't go IR, especially with these units. They are very inconsistent. Maybe for adhesive, but I wouldn�t try reflow with them. Yes, you can reflow with them, but this model of oven will constantly change on you. I

Yes - we got stuck in a train of thought that we have no troubles with the leaded product and should be able to do it lead-free. We overlooked what Chunks has pointed out and spent most of our time on process instead of looking at the boards closely

I spent a lifetime around people that always seemed to be able to pin any and all shortcomings they had in life on the President of the US. Yes..you guessed it...I'm from California. I've come to the conclusion that people simply don't realize how

Howdy folks! Your friendly neighborhood SMTnet.com programmer here. I've spent the last couple of years adding features and fixing bugs for y'all, and now I need some help. The board attached to this post is an inverter for an LCD display fluoresc

I personally believe that you money is best spent on improving your process. An automated printer will help make your process more repeatable, thus easier to control. An AOI will not improve your quality, it will only make your defects easier to dete

If you register your machines with Universal, you will be granted access to all on-line documents. Also, you would be able to order spares from their on-line shop. I paid 500$ for one machine registration and it was money well spent. Also, please sp

We've run for about 2 years with SN100C on a Stainless pot, and all looking OK at the moment - we have just drained the pot and swapped to a similar solder (customer request)so we had a good look as we were interested to see what was happening. To be
