Hi D0m0 Can you standardize on your temps and just adjust conveyor speeds for various sizes of the boards? Another trick is to parallel t-couple plug off the actual t-couples of the oven and mount the plug in an easy access point of the oven. The

Thank you for all your help. I help all my customers to understand more about the production of their parts. I even build free parts using 3-4 different finishes so they can evaluate the parts. In working with CM's many of them are always asking us t

Hi aj, We recently purchased an AOI machine. While doing the first pass research to see which machines to put through a head to head competition I discovered a major improvement in the programming for newer machines. If you buy used, get one that
