Be careful using charts like this to characterize the performance of a production line. The only part of the line that needs to be optimized is the bottleneck. Stencil printer probably.

Automation and low cost is an oxymoron sort of like jumbo shrimp. Automation will set you back $20,000-100,000. Optical comparitors aren't cheap either. Low cost means good eyeballs, a "golden" sample board and up-to-date documentation. Also low c

Wave soldering inspection templates enhance the visual inspection process by guiding the operator's eyes to a specific location on the board to check for the presence and correctness of components. I feel that PCB visual inspection template should be

We have used "feeder templates" in the past to keep components, that are shared by different products, on the same feeder slot number and it has worked well for us.We create a "master set up" say for product A that use 60 different components, the ne

The US automotive industry developed QS-9000. Look here: http://www.niubis.com/Quality/QMS.pdf Within that program is a set of tools and templates. It's possible that their "Advanced Product Quality Planning and Control Plan (APQP)" could help in

If you are running FR4 PCBs and not something exotic like Kapton flex circuits, I would go with the Dek 265 any day of the week. You will find that Dek supports the fully automatic printer much better than the semiautomatic printers like the 260, 24

Hi Vernon! Yeah, you're right. I tried to put a number in place of the "-" thing and it worked. Anyway, thanks for your concern. One thing that's bugging me is the generation of machine programs for a new product. Its been a tedious job for me to man

I do not have any other vendors to offer.....are you having trouble with the Winslow preforms? Just curious. I too have used them in the past, some with good results - but mostly disasters. I have worked with everyone, even the president on attach
