To bad Steve, CircuitCam is good stuff. On a side note. Large programs on MyData's. We load the machine with all the mags it will handle. Run the program, take out mags that the program has used, insert other mags with the incompleted parts, run pro

I'm only peripherally aware of CircuitCam; we were adopting it in a past-life, and I wasn't terribly connected with the adoption. However, I thought that it did have the capability of optimizing a job to a production line (assuming the two machines

OK, why are you hand fluxing? You may want to take the time to use your real fluxer. Yeah, it's a bit messy but you can control the amount of flux you're putting on the board. And with water based fluxes, this is critical. If you are stuck to han

Hi, I am located in Auburn Mass (USA) right near Worcester. Now I noticed you talked about micro stencil for a populated PCB, would I need one? Or could I use a syringe to lay a tiny dot of paste since im only replacing a chip or 2 (at the moment)? I

WE have a problem with a DPAK component floating during reflow, causing it to move to the point where it affects the toe fillet. We have been using a dot of SMT epoxy to hold it secure for the moment. I have looked on many sites, but no whrere can

The ONLY (unlikely) cause I could think of is if you are pushing the component into the solder, ending up with more solder on one side than the other. Why do you think it is the volume of solder that is causing this? By the way, there are "low tomb

Could anyone please help me in my evaluation of Agilent vs. Omron vs. MIRTech/YESTech AOI? We are a high-mix low-to-mid volume manufacturer looking to gain not just a screening method but real process understanding that a Quality Engineer (myself) w

Lou, You should look at the ERSA/Modus AOI System! The Modus AOI uses a high resolution industrial scanner rather than a camera mounted to a gantry. It's way faster (12 seconds for whole board ) and can do everything that a camera can do and more

Mike, dude, I feel your pain. Hearing stories like this makes my blood boil! It's almost as ridiculous as a customer who told me to put more solder paste on a MELF component to overcome noise issues - he used more solder paste as antennas to overco

Dear All, I have 1 product that using solder bar from vendor called Asahi. After wave process, we found quite a sticky flux residue remain on the board. Eventually, have huge impact on our ICT fisrt pass yield(FPY). Current FPY is a the range of
