From my perspective, I like marked parts because I can use AOI to verify the correct parts are being placed in production. If an operator is going to load the wrong reel, I prefer to find out on the first PCB rather than after 5000 wrong parts have b

Board support will almost always cause the part to be miss-mounted. The bouncing affect of the board can cause the part to bouce off the board. BUT, you never stated where the ends up or anything like that. Is the part on the board but just floppi

I have come across a rash of failed assemblies that have 0805 capacitors and resistors, bottom side glued, wave soldered and washed. Trouble shooter reported touching up the solder joints on a few areas and the boards would pass test. I had a look a

Hello Spoilt... Yes it's true about the kitting being important but we also offer a component tester/verifier option for our system. The components can be tested for each insertion if you wish. The machine will not allow a component to be inserted

I think you answered your own question. Try a different lot or mfger of this part. You can prolly get a sample sent over nite and hand place them to verify. Trying to find out why these resistors "explode" when touched with a needle is like findin

They key requirement before any fancy tools is careful storage, stock control, labeling and handling. If your parts are incorrect before they even get to production, you're screwed. As gregp suggests, to get consistently correct value and orientation

we have 3 Rad 8's and never use the verifer cause its too bloody slow.Why bother u cant verify parts being placed on a chip shooter so if your operator takes the same care when loading a reel there should be no need to verify.

This runs up a big caution flag in my mind! Counterfiet parts are often produced by removing the original markings and remarking the ICs with different part and lot numbers. I am not accusing you of this BUT we have recently been bit by counterfei

While attempting to use the IPC-SM-782, land pattern calculator, I came across the term Component ID. (for example - "C1005") I am not sure what this is. I wanted to verify the IPC recommended land pattern for a Chip Capacitor with 0603 size. Can any

What are you placing on this equipment? If you are placing flip chips, you need to have a glass plate test system to verify your machine is accurate and repeatable. If you purchase new equipment and plan to place flip chips or ultra fine pitch, it
