Your post leads me to believe you always solder and flux each component individually, not in series. I have had great success fluxing the entire board, and then soldering. Maybe the cycle time would not allow for this method but that is almost always

of course it has an impact on line capacity. x-out boards have a shorter cycle time, but you have to push more panels through the line to reach the order quantity

Hi Phill Thank you, It´s a possibility because that model has many false calls and real defects, but only in one component. A while back we had a similar problem and we changed the component number to a new one, and the cycle time was better, but th

I like this definition the best. After years of sales of pick and place and other, this is always still a topic of discussion. If your customer's cycle time involves building a board in two different machines, then I would suggest measuring and add

UltraSonic cleaners do a good job of cleaning both stencils and misprint PCBs. Make sure the frequency that the machine comes set to is ok to use with both stencils and misprint PCBs. If you are a CM make sure your customers are ok with using the ul

Does that 48 seconds include board handling? Make sure you pick the slowest spot on the line, and time from a board untill the next board reaches that same spot. For example if machine 2 is your slowest you can pick any part of the cycle. Maybe fir

I've worked with Panasonic, Fuji, Siemens, and Universal. I cannot rate Mydata since I have no experience with them. Here are my ratings based on personal preference: 1=Siemens 2=Fuji 3=Universal 4=Panasonic My reasoning behind this is: 1) Siemens

AccuFlex is the replacement for UltraPrint 1500. UP1500 is going obsolete. AccuFlex was desgigned for fast setup and changeovers and takes some tasks away from the operator. The UltraPrint 2000 was designed for high production, even though many users

The latest software packages and stopwatch will do the job but if your manager is anything like mine he wants to know straight away from the BOM. If you split the bom down between placement machines i.e. caps and resistors etc on chipshooter and ICs

Early on when we started looking at BGAs we tried dipping. We've done it in production for a couple decades with flipchips. Dip fluxing BGAs worked fine in the lab but we ended up starting production with screen printed flux for cycle time reasons.
