We have not done a DOE on board warping. Consider: * How close the board gets to its Tg during the reflow cycle * Amount of copper on each side and the balance between the two * Thickness of the board * Overall length x width * Time at temperature

In the case where fiducials with a HASL finish are removed from a panel in the depanelizing process, what do most people do for disposing of the rails? Since the HASL finish has lead in it, is it generally required that they be disposed of like print

Hi Brandon. You should always try to optimize / "balance" your line in a way so the machine with the shortest time per placement is your bottleneck. The other machines in the line should then have a 10 - 20 sec sorter cycle time, to be able to cope

"Point of use" could be your common high runner parts. They are sometimes kept next to the machines (at the point of use) and may be categorized seperately from the rest of the inventory. In your case all of your parts are inventoried next to the m

Each machine has two feeder tables, one is fixed, the other interchangable. Parts on both sides of the machines does not create a kitting problem but can be inconvenient for feeder replenishment. I have found "U" shaped lines to be much more operator

Hi Guys, How do you calculate throughput? and what's the standard allowance for some hidden downtimes like pick-up miss, pick-up errors, parts/feeder replenishment etc. say i have 4 machines that are not properly balanced in tact time: A= 3 mins

Does any one out there have any experience with this machine? If you do, what are some pro's and con's associated with it? There are not to many of these installed in the U.S. so hopefully someone across the pond can give me some feedback. BTW...W

We conformal coat our boards and get pretty good coverage along the edges of BGA. If you need coverage along the edges and are not getting it, your supplier may be able to recommend a different material or application method. Most often, underfill

Hi AJ, I've never used the Flexa due to the price. We replaced our MCS with eSMT Software (web site http://www.esmt-software.com/). You might want to look at this if you don't need all of the Flexa features. We have older Fuji equipment (GSP's
