Hello SR.Tech, yes, the general positions from 1 to 16 are ok. I also changed the pressure of the spring what is on the achsis for the tape transport wheels. This helped a lot for the most wheels but not for all. I will try it again. Maybee the pres

Did you try Techspray Wondermask W? It is water soluble and can probably be transferred from the bottle to an EFD type syringe for dispensing (we use the P and the PL that way). As far as if it will swell through the reflow, I don't know. We don't us

Can anyone share some good practices to reduce FOD in the conformal coat area? I am new and trying to get my hands around a serious FOD issue. We get red, black, blue, and white fibers that gets trapped in our conformal coat, causing a lot of scopi

It's a common problem. Try using a different needle diameter. Paste type||Suggested needle size II||21 or larger III||23 or larger IV||25 or larger V||27 or larger VI||30 or larger Additionally, improper clearance between the auger pump screw and t

Tim, try and incorporate an inline wash system. We use one with a surfactant and it cleans the "NO CLEAN" fluxes well. If you dont have an inline system, you can manual clean the boards with an surfactant and IPA. You can also do an ionic contamin

Thanks for you suggestions, guys. davef, I am gonna get with my PCB suppliers and talk to them about copper balancing and checking the Tg of the materials they use. SC, I am working towards designing wave pallets for my boards and try your suggesti

Dear experts, I am new in this field, I try to figure out an SMT line’s capacity, but, it looks the capacity varying from a lot of factors, such as, number of component, layout of component, size of PCB… I am wondering if there is a simple but accura

Thanks for the input and advise. Yes, indeed, for single or just few products, to get the lowest ones should be no problem. However, I am facing so many products in the line, and the mix is changed all the time, it is difficult (for me, at least) to

how do i calculate false call rate? i got this equation = [over reject / (total solder joints + components) ] * 1000000 and i got a table which shows data like number of solder joints, components on panel, and number of false call, and the false
