Most of the Siplace users import their data over the Ethernet. In order to do that as well, you will require a physical LAN connection and than a software capable of talking from Windows to Unix like Samba. http://www.samba.com Once you can access th

Hey Matt We manufacture reflow equipment and use all types of profilers. We currently use ECD, KIC, and DataPaq in our testing depending on how our customers want to see the data. In my experience they are all good systems. I have not really ru

Try these guys too: http://www.sigmaprint.co.uk/ Regardless, the parts are most likely stocked only in the U.K. Your machine was orginally manufactured in the U.K. by a British company called SMTech. SMTech was purchased by Quad and then sold to Sp

Hi All, Just have a share with you guy. We are using T4 solder paste and also E-Stencil. We ahd try out Alpha, Kester, AIM and Qualitek. The result show Alpha had a very very heavy stack flux and can't get it clean off even by chemical

We have tried other stencils with different size openings but this company will not allow us time or money to run any experiments to define stencil criteria and printer settings, its just run, run, run. They really dont care about post reflow yields.

You are right about the very poor support for smaller customers. I had told them we were looking for another paste and now they have sent the reginal manager and the US sales manager has come by to see what they can do for us. All they keep saying is

Glue has different mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties than solder. That's why all these very nice no-lead people are furiously trying to gin-up some wacky solder alloy, rather than using glue. Among the papers in the SMTA Knowledge base

The MicroFlex is not really new. Its the UltraPrint 100 re-engineered and improved. UltraPrint 100 / SMTech 100 has been around for many years. I don't believe the DEK 248 offers a Stencil Wiper option. I worked on MicroFlex machines. Vision system i

Debi, Both machines are good and will do a great job for you on Rigid as well flex circuits.Every Mfr.will come to your site and give you a piece of equipment on loan to try for a month hoping you'll buy from them.Why don't you arrange that little ex

Russ has a hint by saying "too long of a soak at too high of a temp or being in reflow for too long/hot". I think the board should stay in the oven for 3-4 minutes, spending 60-90 seconds of which during reflow. in order to stay in the oven for 3 m
