Dear Mr. Jeff, Our SMT room are using the DEK288 and MPM2030 Printers at the same time. We found the similar problem also as mentioned by MR.JOHNW. We analysis it was mainly caused by the PCB metal fixture used in DEK288. The PCB metal fixture is

I'm trying to design a costing matrix for raw cards so our designers can estimate the costs of their raw card designs, this will hopefully slow down their lust for technology and get them considering project budget costs. Does anyone know of where I

Adding to Mike's comments. There are two types of selective wave soldering machines. * Chimney type, like the AirVac and Wenesco that Mike used. They use a boot to funnel the solder to the component to be soldered. * Programmable head type [ie, ERS

Go for it!!! You were unspecific, but adding mask to a completed board could cause: * Increased paste thickness, if you have double thickness of solder mask. * Wrinkled and lifted solder mask under the component, if the solderability protection of

William, Just to start with, I am no expert, but I have a few books lurking. According to one entry, Surface Mounted resistors stuck to circuit boards had been described in 1952 (Circuit World, Feb edition 1952, page 70) The first mention of a devi

Dull / shiny, I�m not sure that�s a proper indicator. If �Liquid Tin� adds a thin coat of solderable material without converting the corrosion on the surface of the lead, the corrosion will [probably] continue to increase and potentially affecting t

in your example, wool clothing and prairie winter ionization makes sense. Smocks would be an improvement to contain the potential of static build up. If you go to dress codes, then you run the risk of having to provide uniforms or pay a laundry allow
