Federico,
Yes, I am receiving your emails. I owe you an explanation and an apology.
I replied on Tuesday, July 21 confirming the shipment and install plan. I have since found that reply sitting in our own internal inbox - I hit reply on an internal copy of your message instead of the original, so it never left our system. That is on me. I also owe Rosa an answer from June 26 that I never sent, and I owe you the flight itinerary I promised. All of that is addressed below.
BUILD STATUSThe antistatic lid - the last outstanding hardware item - has been received and installed. The machine is complete. Remaining work is final functional testing before crating.
SCHEDULEWe are targeting shipment to WTS in El Paso by the end of this week, Friday, July 24. Being straight with you: there is a realistic chance it slips to Monday or Tuesday, July 27-28.
I am holding the week of July 27 to be on-site in Juarez for installation, commissioning, and operator training, with the week of August 3 as the fallback if the crate does not clear in time. I will send my flight itinerary as soon as the ship date is locked, and no later than Friday, July 24.
CUSTOMS DOCUMENTATION - ROSARosa, on June 26 you asked for certificate of origin, value, and technical data sheet. That request went unanswered for far too long and I apologize. Attached:
- Certificate of Origin (USMCA / T-MEC certification format)
- Commercial invoice showing declared value
- D5L6 Technical Data Sheet
Two things I need back from you to complete the certification of origin:
- Spectrum Control de Mexico's RFC and registered address, for the importer block
- Confirmation of the 6-digit HS tariff classification your broker uses for this equipment
Please also tell me if your broker needs anything beyond these three documents. Since you noted clearance typically runs about two days with documents in hand, I want everything in your possession before the crate arrives at WTS rather than after.
SHIPMENT DETAILSShipping to your broker warehouse as previously confirmed:
Spectrum Control, De Mexico
C/O WTS Corporation Inc.
9540 Joe Rodriguez
El Paso, TX 79927Crate dimensions and gross weight:
T
BDThe machine is 141 lbs and is a two-person lift, so no forklift is required once the crate is open.
Two asks so we can lock my on-site days precisely:
- Confirm WTS receiving hours and whether they need advance notice of delivery
- Once it crosses, tell me the date it lands in Juarez. If it clears faster than expected I will move my trip up rather than have the machine sit.
INSTALLATION AND TRAINING - WHAT WE NEED FROM YOUR SIDE
Federico, you asked about this on June 22 and I did not answer it properly. The attached site preparation sheet has the full detail. The essentials:
- Power: 110 V, 60 Hz, single phase, standard NEMA 5-15 outlet within reach of the rear panel. Your facility supply works as-is; no transformer or adapter is required. Please use a circuit separate from sensitive instrumentation, as the machine cycles motors frequently.
- Bench: solid, level, non-vibrating, rated 250 lbs or more
- Machine footprint: 24 in W x 22 in D x 14 in H
- Clear work area: roughly 30 in W x 24 in D x 26 in H, with room to rotate the machine for rear access
- ESD ground point at the bench, plus bench space for the particle-control vacuum unit
- In or adjacent to a microelectronics clean room; ambient at or below 40 C and 90 percent RH
No compressed air, nitrogen, or water is required - this is a dry process. No vent or exhaust either; the particle-control vacuum is a self-contained ULPA-filtered unit.
Plan on one to two days on site: uncrating and placement, power-up and commissioning, recipe setup on your parts, operator training on the new touchscreen interface, and basic maintenance and troubleshooting.
Please have ready:- The operators and maintenance technicians who should attend, so we can schedule around your production
- Sample devices for process validation - at least two of each package type you intend to run
Please complete and return the site preparation sheet at your earliest convenience.
GOING FORWARDEvery update from me goes to this full distribution. If you do not hear back from me within one business day, call my cell at +1 (480) 273-4686 and I will pick up.
Ship date and itinerary to you by Friday.
