Anyone have an 'easy' solution for reducing PCBA handling damage. I'm fighting low level chipped, scuffed and broken-off SMT parts. The damage is spread out across different areas of the assemblies. The assemblies are double sided SMT with 0402's

We have used camera's before, mounted in suspect areas of damage, and recorded a shifts worth of work. When we found a damaged part, we found out what time the damage was found, then looked around that time frame on the camera. It can be complicate
