Hi Senior, Which ones are you looking at? I've had a brief sniff at Scienscope, Creative Electron, and Visiconsult, but it is always something that feels like a nice to have and not a must have so never makes it in the budget.

We understand you can't change the board design, but can you change the process? Why do you have to run SMT parts on the wave? The suggestion above are great, but if they don't help, I feel you should build a case and change process.

HI, We have placed with both Fuji Qp's and Universal Gsm's. We are running a small coil now on a Gsm with a sucessful rate.The Qp done well also, but the product is not ran on a Qp line, so no true production rate has been determined.I don't feel

Can you not track placement accuracy/feeder performance/print performance just via the AOI in near real time? Once you get a feel for it you can usually tell where the fails stem from, and at most you are only usually around 10 minutes out depending

WOW Sr.Tech, 40K worth of bent tools? I'm about ready to be sh*t canned because of 1K's worth. As for trimming the mags, the product is running fine (many boards) and then out of nowhere the tool bends, so I assume my PERFECT operators trimmed the ma

I'm trying to minimize the loss of parts due to dropped parts. Part of the problem might be I'm filling in until we replace the SMT supervisor/manager. Some dopped parts are expected and are so inexpensive it's not worth fussing over. Sometimes I fee

We hare having an issue with our chip shooters misplacing or not placing parts all together. We have traced it back to our adhesive machine. We are using both single and double dot nozzles. I feel that the biggest problem is excessive amounts of g

I feel your pain as well. Our purchasing group minimizes the amount of material in inventory so of course they bring in only what is absolutely needed. When they see 10,000 components in house they just don't understand that the part may be used on

Thanks for the input. Currently we have the advantage of having almost all SMT operators trained in advanced programming so we are able to make changes easily to feeders, etc. Many of the things you mention we do at this time so it's funny to see t

Dave Thanks - have changed to a slightly larger one and it has helped quite a bit, but I feel it is still not perfect. I think I am going to write this one off to a pachaging problem on this one particular device. It is a new machine (2 weeks old) w
