Hey you FlexJet users out there... We just bought a new Universal machine with a FlexJet head on it. Excellent machine. However, I'm still in the learning stage and having a little trouble with 0402's and 0603's (caps mostly but resisters as well)

Howdy, I have a Mirtec MV-TH2L bench top model and I like it. You could look at Yestech. They are in that range. The reason I like my Mirtec is that it programs up easily and does what we want it to do. So far in the last 4 months that we have ha

A number of us had past experiences at larger CMS, but we narrowed it down to Mirtec and Yestech. We had them both in our plant for a head to head test. To keep it fair our President ran both machine thru the test. At the end we picked Yestech. B

We are prepairing a budget for the purchase and installation of a complete SMT Assembly Line. We need to assembly 25K units/month at the begining, and up to 100K unit/month in 1 year. The size of the PCB is around 3"x3" and the following components (

Are you using 08MPF nozzles with front lighting? If so, these nozzles wear quickly if you place a lot of chip caps and resistors. I was using the 3500 vision system and found the vision recognized the nozzle once it was worn and became shiny. You

JMills, The white clip that I refer to is for the Agilis feeder system. The actual clips (feeders) are color coded. As far as the timing on the TM8's, I received a proceedure from Mydata several years ago but had reverted to submitting the feeder ba

Hi Rob, That's indeed quite expensive. I had contact with someone offering a second hand and refurbished DIMA pick place machine: http://www.exmore.com/nl/electronics/secondhanddetail33.aspx The guy offered the machine for 14000 euro's. In this c

We are trying to apply solder to boards with 80 microinches of electro plated hard gold. No components involved, just print 63/37 paste and reflow. The results are very poor on some boards, not so bad on others? Pictures at http://www.sipad.net/thick

I got some info about it last year. I could not justify ROI since this machine was way too expensive (same thing with Vitronics Selective machines). You need to see if this machine will increase your throughput or not depending on your products. Al

We had a similar problem with gold contact pads. Cleanliness is paramount. If you are using foil tensioning system, wash the foil in a stencil wash before use as the cardboard cassettes may be contaminated. Be very careful when loading into a frame f
