"Surface Mount Techniques has approximately 98 percent of the world market share of large Panel Stencil Printers". It sounds a little bit strange to me, especially since I work for one of the companys listed in their advertisement and it is definite

Can be done with AquaStorm 200, with some mods. I worked on a project a few years ago for a military company that needed to clean no-clean solderpaste residues from under LCC devices, we're talking like 2mil standoff. We ended up using a Zestron clea

Russ, I felt the same way before I took the job doing this, and actually only took the job after taking a weeks vacation to look at the machine. There is certainly some truth to Chinese companies basing thier engineering on existing well known suppl
