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

What kind of volume and what kind of complexity? I know a few lead wire houses that are low cost and do a good job. We do a lot of cables. We dont do harnesses. Most of this type of work has gone to Mexico. Give me a better idea of your requirements

Let me give some information on the use of MS2. The average wave solder machine will use one liter per five day week per 8 hour shift. The usage can vary + or - 20%. Instead of removing 6 to 10 Lbs of dross every 3 hours you will have to remove 100 M

A 70 reduction in solder useage is about what we are seeing. You are correct that there are machines that work better with MS2 than others. We are able to make slight modifications to those units, mainly making it more difficult for dross to hide fro
