Good Afternoon, I know that most of the answers I get for this are going to be along the lines of "it's up to you" and I realize that. But, I was wondering what the most common type of profile that is used in your shop and why? Is it the older "S

Hi, I've been looking into UV cureable conformal coating and the UV ovens but a chemist I know is very negative about this. He suggest by heating standard conformal coating to 90deg for a couple of minutes will make the product good enough to handle

Also coating costs depends on solids content vs final dry film thickness. Some newer UV coatings are 100% solids, so what you put down you get on the PCB after cure, use no solvents at all. So a cost to look at are qty of PCB per litre of material. T

I hope that we have not lost much quality, but am still bothered by the way our select x is working. It seems to do very well when I can get the nozzle head within 5/1000 of an inch to the board as it passes. However, when I increase that distance

Look into a used Siemens F-4 or F-5. These machines can be had for a reasonable cost, they are easy to maintain, the footprint is small (7' X 7.5') and they are simple to program. These machines have a 12 nozzle "Star" revolving placement head for

You're barking up the wrong tree. Solder "splashes" are generally caused by your print being off pad a bit. They are called solder fines. I've never seen a placement machine have the capability to push paste around using it's kiss-off from the noz
