I have been comparing Mirtec to Yestech on a regular basis. As a AOI trainer and installer, I have seen significant difference between the machines. 1. In a side by side comparison just today, using the same board, I found the following: a. Insp

In a time crunch, kapton tape works great. If you are using durostone or some material like that for carriers, make sure it is clean right after you machine it and the kapton will stick very well. We are low volume so we pretty much always use tape

IPC-7525 is a document that provides guidlines for the design and fabrication of stencils for solder paste and surface-mount adhesive. This is the first time this important information has been collected and published in an industry consensus documen
