PizzaFred, Scott mentioned lots of good ideas. Take one of your boards to each vendor and see what it takes to program the board how long it takes for it to become online. I've found some that are easy to program, but require 40 or more assemblies to

Bman Each area and process has a unique machine for a reason. Professional engineers at the various OEM�s have thought these things through and there are specific reasons why you don't wash stencils in a board washer, bake pizzas in your reflow ove

For protos and very short runs I already use a polyester stencil + pizza oven process which is fine except for the placement time and tedium. I'm partly trying to bridge the gap between that and stuff that needs subbing out due to quantity, and partl

Cracked parts close to the edge on pizza cutters are a common problem. There are a lot of stresses on the board as the blade cuts through the board. Raising the blade height so that the boards are not cut clean through will help. You will have to fi

Background on the PCB: Thickness: .032" Material: Standard Fr4 V-score: Leaves .016" (approx .008" cuts on either side) We are having some issues on these boards where the edges are delaminating all the way to the copper during de-panel. Now, we are

A word of caution: thick webs (i.e., shallow score grooves) can result in scrapped boards, especially if you've got the dual-wheel-type score breaking machine. I discovered recently that shallow score grooves, combined with DULL knife-edge guides on

Hey Travis, Thanks for the response. I did find a simple profile to use. As you said it took alot of trial and error. I was just looking for a good place to start. As for questioning the capability of a batch reflow oven,they have good reviews f
