Professional exhibition is generally the barometer of industry development. As one of the largest professional exhibitions of the Chinese electronics manufacturing and surface mount industry, NEPCON China undoubtedly reflects the reality of the electronics manufacturing industry climate in China. The continuous downturn of the global economy since 2008 frustrates many vendors in the industry in respect to the future of the market. In 2009, the economy in China grew successfully by more than 8 percent. In 2010, China will make further adjustments to industrial structure while keeping sustainable economic growth. Based on this, what is the future of the electronics manufacturing industry? Visitors will obtain personal experience at NEPCON China 2010, which will be held on April 20, 2010 in Shanghai.

Hi David, In one of my previous jobs I worked as an AOI/AXI process engineer and we had a set target of 75% FPY. This means that 75% of the boards at IPC Class 3 standards would not have a single false call. This also means you would need to set y

We currently have 2 M1 systems. Our false call rate has never been has high as you suggest. There is something wrong with your program and/or inspection algorithms, as you probably already know. You should be somewhere between 1000-1500 vcpmo (fal

I wanted to open a discussion and ask about opinion: What is a normal result of the inspection of an AOI? How many falls calls per component /opportunity is bad/normal/good? How many defects per component/opportunity is bad/normal/good? What is goo

There is learning on all brands requiring fine tuning the test parameters. The first point is not to allow defects to escape. Many brands can do a good job with preventing escapes. The struggle with all the brands becomes false calls. The companies r

Not sure if you need help with the calculations or the application, so from the beginning: d=defective parts, p=number of parts, dpm=defects per million parts In a nutshell, d/p=dpm/1000000, so dpm=d/p*1000000 We use dpmo (defects per million op

Thanks for the details. Next question- where is your first time pass rate measured? Is this at test? Do you have inspection gates at the end of each process step? To get to the root cause, you need the earliest detection. Collect attribute data by a
