Whoaaaa Genny, Its not that bad!!! The difficulty factor is in assembling your own boards is all releative to how many, and how difficult they are. Most studies show that the vast majority of defects in smd assembly are generated in the application

Hi Experts, I'm facing short problem with BGA at SRT rework in one particular BGA. It is BGA, with a metal piece at the center like a coin. The BGA is located in between two high profile press fit connectors and the short always observed at the si

Hello markt, If you're only running at 85%, you've got some things to look into! First, it's good you know that you're operating at 85% with some measurables that help you determine that. Now, the easiest methodical way to improve productivity on SMT

You're welcome John, it can get confusing but what's important is that machine's exhibit accuracy AND repeatability. Generally, high Cp values represent high repeatability (for instance in darts: hitting a triple 20 over and over means you're very re

Not too sure about that compressed air idea.... How dry is the air? Will it be monitored for moisture content? Given that the air IS dry enough (less than 5% RH) You will have to supply compressed air 24hrs per day, without any disruption in flow
