Someone with some more definitive knowledge of these machines will no doubt chime in at some point, but my thought was that the "A-table" is just a data table that stores I/O information. Thus, being "off in A-table YV100X:N2323 YV100XT:n2223" just m

We have several issues with components placing properly onto designated leads without having to offset our boards fiducials before population. For several of our boards, we cannot set our fiducials "dead center" but rather offset them in various dir

I'm with Steve. Check the datasheet, and make sure that the terminations are meant for solder application, and not conductive epoxy. I had that happen a year or so ago with an MLCC. Drove us nuts for two days (not to mention the significant rework

Guys, I have been down this road also spent a lot of time working on this. Electrolytics often are difficult to solder like this. For the sake of testing, try a water soluble more active flux as an initial test. IF you compare hand solder wetting the

We currently run a Yes Tech BX machine using the Yes Vision software on Windows 7. With Windows 7 support running out in January next year, I was curious if anyone had managed to run the Yes Vision software under Windows 10. The obvious answer is to

Hi there. Sorry I haven't responded sooner. The video I posted was a very preliminary trial that I developed as an option to my BoMCompare application. BoMCompare is a tool that can compare Bills or Materials of various file formats (xlsx, csv, txt,

Good morning! In order to comply with current IPC J-STD-001G Appendix A-2, I'm putting together a log to periodically monitor solder tip temp tolerance, tip resistance, voltage leakage, etc.. I'm solely focusing on the hand solder stations for the t
