Also why I am at it. In the book CP-6 Series Maintenance Manul ( Fuji Part # MNT-C060-11.3E ) in Chapter 4 page 4-1-11 it says " The clutches should therfore be cleaned regularly, using the grease cleaner (ThreeBond 2706) provided with the machine."

Mike, Have you contacted Universal Instruments yet? If not you should call them. If I am thinking of the same oven, this oven was manufactured by ETS (Energy Technology Systems) or http://www.energytechnologysystems.com. I take it you bought this

We recently purchased an old Fuji IP-I placement machine and have been testing 8x4 feeders for 0805 parts, etc. I have opened some of the non-working feeders to replace broken pieces and have noticed that some of the feeders are completely clean ins

SPC was a fad of the '80's and has been mis-used by the igonorant for decades now! Doing SPC on defects is a case in point. Hell I implemented wave SPC programs before eating breakfast at 2 previous companies, and they worked great..resulting in 25

Yes, doing the DoEs on your wave to achieve optimum settings that deliver the best results on your worst board is correct method. If not clear on the process, there are still wave solder process classes out there you can attend or hire in-house. If y

Bingo! In my career, I've used Wave Solder optimizer and the WaveRIDER. Pro's and Con's to both. I did a GR&R on both as well, and WaveRIDER came out on top. The main challenge is to get the operators to use it. I've found that the operators wer

Russ, We use a unit called a Datapaq surveyor to monitor our ovens. Its basically a unit that a data logger rides through the oven in. It has 3 thermal couples across the top and 3 across the bottom. It takes measurements the full width of the proces

Well, you don't want your paste to spoil! It'll give it a bad aftertaste. Actually, we refrig our paste mainly cause our stock room gets rather on the toasty side. Jars left un-friged will cause the metals to sink and leave a puddle of flux on top

It's cumbersome. Also if it catches a part partially after initial set-up, you'll get missprints. We had one and caused about 15% missprints. Once removed and hard pin in place, no missprints. Defeats vacuum board hold down too, from all of it's

We just got our used Fuji IP-1 working well. Sometimes during testing of a new program/pcb we like to stop the run and re-start with a clean board. When we make the IP-1 eject the unfinished pcb and start with a new pcb the IP-1 does not scan the f
