I can't offer much advice on acceptible rates or #'s. From a process standpoint, most of your bridging or insufficient originates in your printer. Look into buying dedicated tooling specifically designed for the build. We use "h-towers" on all hig

We are running SMT products and have been for some time now. First, I wanted to check with you folks to see what an acceptable FPY rate, or what you would consider and acceptable rate, is. Secondly, we are having issues primarily with product that

98% to 99% pass yield should be your target. The previous company I worked for, we were able to meet these goals with most all of our products. It took us some years to achieve this level of pass rate. Of course analyzing and good reporting from some

Thank you. I spoke with our SMT guy, and he stated that there is plenty of board support on the pcb. So it's not a matter of flexing. There just seems to be inconsistancy in the solder application. He did mention that part of the problem is a lac

I would appreciate if you can share your experience with pick failure rates, preferably for 0402 parts. Also, what percentage do you consider acceptable?

O.K., folks, I know this is a loaded question, but I've been asked to find the answer, sooooo: What is an acceptable defect rate in ppm for a surface mount process, assuming that each component has the potential for one defect. This would include de

Steve, Basically in answer to your question, there is no real set number for defects. Defect rates will vary between products and companies. If my company was running the same product as yourself then there is no reason to suggest that the defect ra

It makes a difference what the normalizer is. We calculate solder ppm and placement ppm separately for each assembly. Solder ppm = #solder defects*1E6/(Qty boards*#solder joints per board). For us this number is easily less than 50 and sometimes
