After saying for years that we'd never do two-sided assembly, the powers that be are not only saying we will, but they're threatening to throw an out of house design at us...no frame (it's a PCI card with a couple of dinky breakaway tabs), no tooling

The Electra is Electrovert's top-of-the-line wave solder machine. Just about the best you could get. Conveyor concerns should focus on the condition of the extruded rails. A machine that new should not have a problem, buy worth a look see. Find out i

Enrique It's true that higher energy guns do a better job measuring "light" materials. [Actually, if that was true by itself, you'd expect the fabricator's readings to be higher than yours. But, HEY!!!] Regardless, there's alot more to getting an

Those temp stickers are useless unless you can stick them into the copper barrel. They can only determine "skin" temperature which has nothing to do with what is happening in the barrels. Your solder is filling the barrel then going cold. I'll gua

Hi, We used it previously a few years ago, and I think I posted some comments on it here in the forum in the past you might want to search out. It's a weird process, because it solders incredibly, and I mean it's incredible. There is no oxygen, so

Hi Dean, Thanks for the feedback. I suppose I should reveal the nature of my query. Contact Systems was founded by my father back in 1970. I worked there from 1983 until we closed the doors back in 2009. I acquired the assets and intellectual pro

Hello, This is from my old documents....hope it helps. I would first try mod code 53 = 2 first.....if the machine is a 2C. The motor was known for causing this problem after getting old. These are all resolutions for motor error 4. Step Potential P

There are no BGA rework stations in that price range that I would consider for purchase. (or did you miss a zero in your cost estimate?) In order to have placement, and sufficient heating for proper BGA rework (top and bottomside)you're going to hav

SP1 is a bi-metal spring loaded switch or the "air fault" switch on the main air manifold that detects the presence of an appreciate amount of air being supplied to the machine. Air pressure overcomes the adjustable spring and closes the contacts.
