| I thought this was a forum for equipment only. We were asked to take OUR messages off of the other SMTNet forum. I see many messages concerning process related issues that don't have anything to do about buying, selling or servicing SMT equipment

Lookit here, Mugwump, The SMT community at large is composed of a vast array of expeiences, some barely with SMT 101 behind them to others who have probably already forgotten more than you'll ever learn. Without direct, personal contact of any

Dason, Just a word of caution about your experiment. Evaluating moisture content by weight gain is a very simplistic model, based on the assumption that the moisture content is uniform across the package. In fact, recent technical papers have cl

Batch vs. In-Line for straight aqueous cleaning applications tends to be all about production. You'll have to see what cycle times you get from the various batch systems out there vs. the in-lines. In-Lines come in various sizes. Some of the leading

Yeah, what Techsuppguy said. But further there are a few more points. The first is in the current market situation far less new machine are being purchased and far more are just changing hands. In the past the ratio of warranty machine service pho

Let�s not get drawn into making more of the amount of training required in order to be able to develop an effective reflow recipe than is necessary. A low-skilled operator with about one hour's training can setup the solder reflow oven. Consider co

Larry, I've got to throw the BS flag here. "any part that could cause machine down time is kept in stock for immediate technical response." I have over 20 machines from Assembleon. I've been involved with many "firsts" throughout the evolution of

Armakleen is compatible with CPVC as are most aqueous-based chemistries. Armakleen, in its day was a superior chemistry. It was the first of the aqueous blends to offer bright solder joints (earlier saponifiers commonly dulled solder joints). Arma
