It will be tough to get a good line for that cost. You might want to start by looking at Mydata and Juki for the machines. Ekra for the screen printer and Heller for the oven is where you might want to start. If you have not already you might want

| I am looking for a rule of thumb regarding the maximum ramp standard components (chip capacitors) can tolerate without failure during the reflow process. The standard seems to be 3C\second, but this figure is generally derived from the average ram

Have you verified the measurements on the bench with an LCR meter? Chances are you are experiencing aging with these ceramic caps. We have similar issues with X5R and X7R caps. You will see the effects of aging with returns from the field as well

A few questions: How did you put the wrong part on for so many years and not catch it? Was this due to an error in the customer supplied data like an incorrect BoM or an internal error such as a P&P machine programming error? How wrong was the wron

Ahh yes, 254. Don't give up on the other vision types. 254 can give you skewing as well. Your width and height are awfull close. Even with the 0.5 tolerance it is using the tolerance and saying that it is OKAY. Maybe what you measure is 1.8mm for wit

A couple of things: Does the cap break if you try to remove it with hot air? If not, than you are breaking the caps do to mechanical stress. We have had similar issues. I don't think your board is suffering from mechanical stress from depaneling o

DST, What was the crack signature? Was the crack parallel with the internal electrodes or 45� with the terminal electrode? It is also important to determine the orientation of the failed caps on the PCB (in regards to depaneling). Perhaps the cap

There are flex caps that are more tolerant of flexing. I don't think they are a lot more expensive. You might want to try a run with them?

The low value will be 0.624uF. You have to factor it from the low tolerance (-10%). So: 0.9 x 0.92 (machine tolerance) x 0.91 x 0.91 x 0.91 (3 decade aging factor for X7R dielectric). We factor hours at the 3rd decade (10,000 hours), but you can

Try vision type 12 for capacitors, this will give you much better acceptance in the vision inspection, since those are slightly rounded. Resistors works normally fine with vision type 10. If you have a component that is very hard to get pass the visi
