Hello Michael, Laser marking and ink jet marking are now offered by a wide array of suppliers. The was a bit of a boom at APEX last year in the number of suppliers for these systems. Many have tried label placing but have run into a number of conc

Hi Danial, Yes, you can use one cleaning chemistry for all paste types. There are many available chemistries from many manufacturers. The chemistries that I would recommend include: StencilWash Plus from Aqueous Technologies http://www.aqueouste

Hi mates, need some help to resolve a thumb-twine situation. As a high-mix, low volume prototype build house, we always conduct a first article inspection (FAI) on every model setup conversion in the SMT production Lot run. we do this FAI by mounti

Ron, The new ystem is probably the best one I've seen for useability, the who thing can be driven by wizards to guide people through what they need to do. The system has the ability to set alarm's that will basically analyse your result's for you an

The Electra is Electrovert's top-of-the-line wave solder machine. Just about the best you could get. Conveyor concerns should focus on the condition of the extruded rails. A machine that new should not have a problem, buy worth a look see. Find out i

Well I was expecting some questions. If you have the most convoluted system out there, and its up for a while people will figure out how to use it. The thing with MySMTnet is that many people don't necessarily understand it. We had thought with th

Like Russ, I am also curious about the 100% fill requirement. On any thick, high mass board the key is getting as much heat as possible into the board. If you get the board to the proper temperature, solder will flow just about anywhere. As an alte

If your operation is hi-mix low-volume, consider taking a look at some of the bench-top units out there. They are lower cost but can give similar performance as higher cost in-line systems. Some of the bench-tops cannot do solder fillet inspections t

Hi Patrick, I can easily troubleshoot ML, EL and SL 20 systems by phone or e-mail, but the MPC-29 is a bit more complex. The problem that you are describing was failry common, and there were a number of potential causes. First is to check if the dr

Thanks, We currently use Metcals for our regular work and I was looking at the ERSA system for the BGA rework. From what I have seen it seems simple to use, and since it uses IR you don�t need all the attachments for different size BGA�s. You just
