Believe it or not, we use kid's markers like Crayola. Some colors come off more readily than others so you may have to experiment. We use it on aluminum so it may not be just right for you but it's an inexpensive test. Kind of made us happy when m

Sign makers utilize a material called "Scotch-Cal" and "Scotch-Brite" in making decals used in outdoor environments. Material similar to this comes in metallic silver and gold. Pieces of this can be economically die-cut and affixed to your PC Board

We haven't run a profile yet....probably because we're a-feared to. We can't do topside preheating here to any degree because we use an aluminum plate for aligning hundreds of top side through-hole components (pots, switches, buttons, LEDs) that te

I was wondering if anyone has done a study on thermo couple attachment with light cure adhesive.I have read all the papers and articles about aluminum tape, Kapton, and high temp solder.I have yet to hear anything regarding the accuracy of light cure

Try: Tungsten, tungsten carbide, ceramics like boron-nitride or how about pyrex glass? Glass blowers could make "hooks" that connect to a cross bar. I would NOT use aluminum (even if anodized). Try stainless steel 316. 303, 304 do not have enough

Now that is creative! I going to talk to my machinist. I need a bar of aluminum machined to accept 24 pigs (ass up of course). Then I need a "squeezing" mechanism to apply a proportional pressure to the pigs abdomen to make the "ass gel" support t

I think the plaster like material is actually for heat transfer, not alignment. Thats the only reason I can think that it would be injected inside the aluminum housing and not just around the bulb. Anyways, ive found a few places that have the bulbs

On the dendritic growth over the top of the capacitor: We agree that your capacitor supplier probably did not do a very good job of cleaning process residues from their device. On the metallic fragments under the capacitor: This sounds like solder

The Luxeon probably are the brightest available. I say probably only because this changes every day. The Luxeon require special mounting as they must be mounted to an aluminum cored PCB with thermal adhesive and then the leads soldered to the PCB.

Hi Mark, Check out Heller's white paper link for a study done with a PCB in line with thick and thin aluminum plates to measure repeatability and delta T with loads of large mass materials. The result was less than 1 degree with their oven due to i
