Does anyone know a formula for determining my "Excess Capacity"? I know my machine's up AND down time, the effective placement rate, and my idle time. If my manager asks me what out "excess capacity" is, how do I use my "knowns" and calculate an ac

Mark, I guess while your machine sits idle, it could do boards. While the machine processes boards it breaks down by a certain percentage rate. I would multiply the placement rate with the idle time, multiplied by uptime divided by hundred. 10.000 (

Can anybody recommend low capacity PCB manufacturing equipment for labaratory or research/designers center. Output 2-10 sqr. m. per shift; required working space 30-100 sqr. m. Spent too much time looking fr this. Thanks in advance.

Determine the capacity of the slowest element of the line.

Dear experts, I am new in this field, I try to figure out an SMT line’s capacity, but, it looks the capacity varying from a lot of factors, such as, number of component, layout of component, size of PCB… I am wondering if there is a simple but accura

Thanks for the input and advise. Yes, indeed, for single or just few products, to get the lowest ones should be no problem. However, I am facing so many products in the line, and the mix is changed all the time, it is difficult (for me, at least) to

I am task to make productivity improvement for production. The line configuration is as follow: MPM Printer/S20/S20/S20/S20/GSM/GSM/MVT/BTU How to calculate the capacity of the above configuration? What factors do I need to consider?

In 2002, the IPC released IPC 9850 for use in assessing placement machine performance.

Thanks, it is pretty close...

Thank you very much for your reply. I do have the numbers for placement per hour, but, I have some concerns on it (forgive me if it is a stupid concern, as I said, I am new in this field, and trying to figure out this business). For example, it is
