Garth, Try searching on "capacity planning." This is a standard tool available in most MRP and ERP software packages. You may already own it in whatever software package you use for your material planning. Steve

You might want to look into one of the machines from Europlacer or Mydata that have very high feeder capacities(200 or more) and intelligent feeders. They were designed for minimal change over time in high mix environments.

Scotty: If you have excess CNC machine capacity, it might be economic, but if your machine and design resources are loaded-up the $1000+ sounds cheap. [Just another voice screaming in the dark.]

Align the machine... are we talking about the table, the BEC, the clinch, the insertion tooling, EVERYTHING? That sounds right to me too, but I don't know if we have the capacity to do that at this very moment.

Voltage does not flow. Current flows as a result of a change in voltage. Current capacity of traces * Graph is IPC-2221 paragraph 6.2, Figure 6.4 * http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Lab/9643/TraceWidth.htm

Based on the amount of equipment I am seeing available in China for sale, my guess is China is suffering from over capacity issues at the this time. I could be wrong but it doesn't appear the world wide board assembly economy is anything but flat.

Hi Ken, You're right - they're not doing anything smart, they are just using a rechargable battery pack. It's not even the latest or most suitable technology for the application (Li-ion has far better temperature characteristics & far high capacity

At the risk of being lambasted the Contact machines are very easy to program and have double the feeder capacity in a much smaller footprint. Please don't hate me.

no offense Grant--I was designing P & P equipment and vehemently studying competition when your mother was still wiping your nose...I was just responding to the previous comment about footprint and feeder capacity--for which there is no equal to the
