Dave hit the hottest issues. But, I would emphasize the cycle counting!! Your inventory will quickly lose control of scrap percentages. That is, you may set your system to, say, 5% scrap....but, your operator and/or machine may lose 10% on a parti

We toss extras at tear-down unless it looks like an unusually large amount which could = qty. pick error from warehouse. In that case, we do a cycle count. All overages are issued when the kit is pulled so they are already taken out of stock.

We recently purchased a Scienscope AXC-800 III which can count 4 7" reels at one time in seconds. It can count tubes, trays and bulk as long as keep the components down to 1 layer (which for bulk is not ideal). so far we are very happy with, cuts dai

97% to 99%? I've heard of one company that managed that but only after a big six sigma project. And they had minimal stock anyways. I think if everyone picked 100 components to cycle count, that the average accuracy would be around 80% . That is

That's what we do [no more than three reworks or mods]. Your "four reworks permissable" was probably based on the 55110 five thermal cycles, counting wave soldering as the first cycle. How do you plan to keep track of each of those rework actions?

I always prefer to not count parts, period. Generally, I don't have too many problems with customers with this method....I explain to them that the cost of my counting the parts (to them) is much more expensive than the cost of them supplying excess

>But since we are a low volume high mix operation I need to account for almost every part used. I'm in the same boat, and we do more changing of feeders than actual placements it seems. What I have done which has improved things a lot is in our MRP
