Pat,
Loctite 3609 can be dispensed with the following parameters relative to
your questions.
The questions you must answer are: A) Which motor do you have on the
Cam/Alot pump, ie, 1X, 2X, or 3X? (Note: I assume that you have a 635,
642, or 644 pump.) B) What type of auger/screw is in the pump, ie,
standard or other depth? C) What pad spacing do you have for the
0805's and 1206's.
The motor speed and screw type will affect the dispense parameters to
achieve a given dot size. The pad spacing will limit the maximum dot
diameter.
I have worked with Camalot to write a guide for dispensing 3609. E-mail
or call me and I will send it to you.
Adhesive: Loctite Chipbonder(R) 3609
10 cc syringe, Pressure = 12 to 20 psig, enough to supply auger
continuously without "drool". 30 CC--20 to 25 psig
THESE SHOULD BE USED AS STARTING POINTS ONLY, YOU SHOULD VERIFY AND
ADJUST PERFORMANCE AS INDICATED BY YOUR EVALUATIONS.
0805: Pad spacing typically 0.024 to 0.031 inches
Dot diameter target: 0.016 to 0.021
1X motor 23 gauge 0.006 inch stand-off 20 mSec "shot size"
Standard auger 25 0.005 20 27 0.004 30
2X motor, standard auger, half-speed motor
23 see above 10
25 10
2X motor, deep auger, full speed motor
23 see above 10
25 15
1206: Pad spacing typically 0.047 to 0.055
Dot diameter target: 0.031 to 0.037
1X motor, standard auger, full speed
21 0.010 30
23 140
25 140
2X motor, Standard auger, full speed
22 0.008?? 25
23 see above 45
2X motor, Deep auger, full speed
21 20
22 25
I have also used a 23 ga with 0.008" stand-off on the Cam/Alot 665 pump
to dispense 0.033 inch diameter dots using a 50 mSec shot size.
Also, you can adjust "lift-height". This was set at 0.150 inches for
the above.
Let me know if you need any more information.
