The 2060RE model that I have can do an 18"x20" board. I think the Mydata can do larger. Juki did tell me that next year they will release a machine that will do larger boards but didn't specify on how big. The 2060RE can do 0201 up to 74mm square

There is a ISO Standard 14644-1 Class Limits, but I don't know if if this is applicable in the "so callled" SMT standard production scenaraio and if so, what class would it be? I hope that some other nice guys will correct me, or have i totally lost

We will be receiving our lead free wave solder machine soon and I have been doing a lot of reading here. I've seen many dicussions about SAC vs. SN100C for wave applications and am leaning heavily towards the SN100C for my process. I haven't seen any

I can't believe this is the first time this has happened, but anyway..... We have a turnkey job (customer provided only the bare boards) that included testing with their system. One board failed, and we found damage (a short deep gouge) that seems t

I have used, Siemens, Juki, Fuji, Universal, and Assembleon. All of them can do the job, depending on the machine mix selected. I personally prefer MPM screenprinters, after using both DEK and MPM. BTU, Vitronics, Heller, and Ellectrovert all make

Marc, Topside temperature is one of the most critical parameters for a successful solder process. Temp stickers are OK to use but won�t tell you the temperature in tight areas. The temp gun like Jay suggested is what I use as a quick indicator. (Rayt

We are a small company, reletivly new to doing our own SMT (1 year) and we are having an issue, I think. We manufacture many board with no problems, but we have one that constently defeats us. This particular PCB has ENIG finish, and we have had th
