we encounter the same problem as you 3 years ago. but now we have implement to use KIC 24/7. you just need to take 1 time profile (for the base line profile), and then for the next time you run your product, it will take profile for each board you b

KIC 24/7 has evolved into RPI. Not only will it give you virtual profiles, it also gives you DPMO and yield, based where each board lands in the process window. The good thing about this software, you can go back a year later and look up a specific

Well their demo was interesting. We're an OEM with our own product line, so the part numbers don't change much and we don't cross things often. It seems like it might do what I need for the next few years. If you're selling to upgrade, out of curios

Do you see any issues with grid lock on double sided boards? My concern is that you set it up for the first board second side (populated side down) then you might have parts that aren't exacly at the same height on the next boards due to shifting or

You need to get your local rep to demo the grid loc. That is what it is for double sided boards. when the table comes up the pins adjust to the different height components. I also thought I saw a similar product on one of the advertising Panes on thi

The original post was back in 2007. My most recent communication with Peter was last year and he was still having the problem 4 years later. Since it is temperature related, I am suspecting the card in question got partially cooked once and is now al

We concur - we reduced problems by lowering the booster panel to the horizontal and putting two pedestal fans behind the machine blowing onto it - but I think once the ambient air has heated up the cooling effect is reduced of course - we have a smal

Thanks for the information and insights. Our booster is probably getting too hot, even with AC. There is bouncing when we trim component locations. Every so often, while trimming component locations, the x-axis will start to slowly move away (by i

As as per your information and photo, we attached two box fans under our booster and attached them to the white XGTS connector. The fans are blowing upward with airflow between the booster board and the back of the machine. We will carefully watch

Hi, I have pcbs (Duroid/RT 5880) with raw copper, soldered in vapour-phase chamber at 230 degrees Celsius. During soldering, copper gets tarnished. Cleaning with Vigon A250 removes the tarnished layer. Indeed, in the VigonA250 techn. datasheet it is
