I'm told that the Contact Systems machines we have will are set up so that if you put a sticker over the fiducial it will skip that board on the panel. I think the machine might prompt the operator that it can't find the fiducial and the operator te

@Evtimov My company only recently got our SMT line operational and are just starting to estimate PCBA time. I just wanted to clarify, it seems that your formula will boil down to the number of panels multiplied by the bottleneck operation. Is there
