SMT machine shift to China

Electronics Forum | Wed Jan 17 21:56:57 EST 2007 | fastek

Here's why it all goes to China: Americans all want $100 per hour to change a light bulb yet refuse to pay any more than $10 for a cell phone and $500 for a computer. They only want to work 5 days per week, 7 hours a day and get one month off every

It appears that he has the quantity of feeders it holds listed as how many feeders come with it. I dont think that machine is worth $1,250.00. You will spend a lot on feeders since you can still use them on newer quads. I sold about 20 of them last y

I am having second thoughts, because this machine is not an 84VZ. That's the one I would prefer. But, it is still at $520 on eBay! Arrghhhh! Well, in a little over a day I will know one way or the other. Thanks for the info on the equivalent Yam

For a microscope, you want one with the greatest working distance and depth of field you can get. You don't want a lot of magnification, so something like 0.7 - 20 X is good. If you are buying new, have salesmen bring them by and actually try them

I have the manual for this machine and the programs I am after allow me to connect the machine to a PC via an RS232 interface to allow upload and download files to/from the machine as well as an optimiser. We have had the machine for a while and is o

Oh no! Doom and gloom on the horizon! Why should I even try? Gawd, I've heard this sh@t all my life and ya know what? I went to school, got good grades, worked my ass off, landed a decent job, and still work for a low IQ, non-Chinese, non-Indian

Hi there CK, I didn't follow the link yet, but I thought I'd comment on your post here. I've attended two engineering schools in the USA, and one of them was a pretty darn good school. At both, I would have to say about 80%+ of the graduate studen

Time to retire the wave?

Electronics Forum | Fri May 18 13:50:38 EDT 2007 | realchunks

Hi Grant, Replacing a wave witha spot solder? You must have very few comonents to solder or all day to solder them. Why are thinking of doing this? Well, I have looked at just about every selective machine out there. What it all boils down to is

Wave Pre-heater not working

I do want to run a profile, but they won't give up the machine long enough for me to run one. The boards that we are running through the wave are large boards, with large caps, and large transformers on it. We're building highend power amps that

d0mino, Given the fact that the SLIMKic has built in wave detection, you can just make a pallet out of 10mm delmat material, and drill a couple of holes on the pallet for the wave detect T/C's (ports 2 & 3 for left and right). All the wavesurfer is
