We own a Fuji IP1 with all the manuals, etc. but can't figure out how to inch the tray robot. We can inch the X, Y, Z, Q axis and the SX and SY axis. All the axis auto zero OK (including the trays), but when I push the "4" key to inch the trays we

Hi, it seems like you have some experience with the SM320... How do you feel about the reliability, and consistency of it? does it generate alot of error on a run? and what do you mean about feeders breaking the head? Also you're telling me that this

Why does everyone tell me smocks will prevent ESD. They're not grounded, so how can they bleed or prevent ESD? They may not cause any ESD, but they sure don't come close to a heel strap or ESD shoes. OK, maybe from a "management" standpoint it mak

Does this bring back some awful memories! Back in the mid-80's I worked for a little company called Solectron (yes they were small back then). They wanted everyone to wear smocks and I fought that one come hell and high water. It was all for show as

CMiller, Thanks for the valuable info! We are in the midst of lead-free deployment and need to know good alloy choices at both wave and ERSA. I have heard the same things regarding SAC305's price for bar solder, but don't yet know what the process

I don't believe you are missing anything, Amol. Mainly, you just need to make sure that your oven handles the higher temperatures needed for reflow. Also, there has been a lot of discussion on how many zones are needed to properly reflow lead-free

Mike You get what you ask for. We ask for 0.001 inch minimum. If your supplier's published process range allows thickness below 0.001 inch minimum, you need to define your own acceptance criterion. We don't use average measurements in lot inspect
