Soldering Bath - When we need to tin high-power contacts or a lot of wires, for example, in making harnesses, a regular soldering iron is either impossible to use due to the high thermal capacitance requirement, or takes way too long to perform the t

Oh yeah, so we have a auger valve similar to that on one of our other machines that we use for dispensing SMT glue, and solder paste also. We have a conditioner that we flush it with at EOD when in use, then we just let it sit idle with the condition

Agreed. We machine all our pallets in coolant. No dust but a big mess still results in the bottom of the CNC. You'll burn through a thousand cutters if you try it on a router table. Just doesn't seem feasible. You'd have to take like 0.020" dept

I'm setting up a asymtek millenium m-cob style dispenser for the first time and running through the master offsets routine but when it attempts to find the needle in the nsz needle sensor it works in the x direction but when it attempts to locate in

In the past I have worked on 600 Amp FET Blocks. The rule was no voids. The circuit board would be heavy copper. 4 times normal plating time. Not particularly high resolution on the board say 20 mils. To help with the heavy plating. The boards were t

regarding dwl comment, "For low volume hand assembly, deionized water or IPA should work fine." Deionized water: Deionized water is corrosive. It needs to be removed. Proof? Drop a copper coin into a covered jar of DI water and watch what happens ov

Hey all, We are a small electronics manufacturing company who has been using the solder reflow process for years, but we have been hand placing components. We only run the system 2-3 days per week. I have been looking at buying a used pick and pla

Sergey, I understand your thought process kinda, but you are not going to justify yourself a pick and place line based on a "simple" 5K board contract unless you know something we don't. You do not want a machine that has buggy or slow software. Any
