Hi All, I am wondering if there is a standard or any documentation for the selection of which nozzles to use for components. From my little experience in the world of SMT manufacturing the selection process for nozzles seems to be the best guess by p

Hi Dex, We're going back a few decades here, but... 1) can you treat it as 4 large leads - one rectangular block per side? 2) Is it failing on the coplanarity check set up or the basic vision? if Coplanarity, can you skip that check? 3) are you us

Hi Ivan, We use a strong double sided tape/sheet. I would be concerned with an adhesive as it would still be curing going through the machines, gassing out vapor. The double sided works OK with our 0201 test board - 16000 placements in rows at 0,9

Actually the newer pick and place machines are much less complex as far as mechanics, and wiring. The software however is much more complex output wise, but way easier to use. I have been working with SMT equipment going on 3 decades. To answer you

thank you for the reply it was our error- there was a change notice via a spreadheet in a resistor value; the operator used the old reel/old value. Customer did not pay for AOI. Customer supplied tester passed all the boards, even with the wrong (u

We have four QSV-1s, all with the Windows 7 upgrade. Although they do the job for us and they are still fully supported, I would not recommend them for anything less than 0603. For 0402 and 0201 you need special feeders. We do not use the special fee

That's a significant drop in speed from a CP4/3 & IP2 to a Quad QSV-1 - about 75-80% slower. Also do you really want to go from one old platform to another? Obviously everything is budget dependant but there are a lot of newer used machines out
