It surprises me that most of our friends have forgotten to keep updated with the latest equipment available these days! For a dream line with a "blank check" why not consider factors like speed, flexibility, changeovers, ease of operation, ease of pr

So the only difference between the "regular solderers" and the BGA people is trace repair? If that is it than you should put the pay in range with your PCB repair people. We do not pay any extra for BGA rework since all they do is wick pads (common

Hi Rob, You might want to consider changing your current procedure. Components classified MSL 4 have only a 72 hours floor life at 30C/60%RH. Even if you consider the de-rating factor (table 7-1 in J-STD-033A), at 50% this maximum exposure time wil

What you need to remember is Fuji didn't make a name for itself by building this XP platform. They're strengths are/were in their chipshooters. Don't just assume that because it's Fuji it won't have reliabilty issues. I'm not sold on this platform ye

The 10k rebuild does not need to be applied every 3-4 months as previosly stated. A cp machine that is running 100% of the time on a 24/7 basis will tack up 10k hours in 12.4 months. Now we all know that this is impossible due to parts shortages, pro

"Polymide Films absorb a great deal of moisture. Polymide laminates must be baked at more than 1 hour at 100'C or better for a double sided PWB prior to exposing the laminate to elevated temperatures such as that required for soldering. Moisture abso

woow, slow down hot rod, hey davef, you are alright by me, good to see some one out there that has hands on experience rather than a theory nut.... any how, you need a top of the line profiler, super gold mole, or Kic.... these truly are the best and

There's no such specification. Not should there be. Shear tests [in our opinion] are senseless, because: * Solder joint strength in pull/shear varies with lead geometry, solder volume, lead metal/metallization, and the way the test is done. * She
