We have a new SMT line, our customers are asking us the validation of the process. Not only the validation of the resulting assembled board (solder joint...) but also a validation of every single machine in the line (ex. stencil printer...). For exam

As Russ say, you can buy kits from Practical components and make your tries, the send those pcb's to your solder paste vendor for analysis.I am using Senju Lead free solder and I send boards to them then they cut the board and analyze your solder con

Sounds like there may be a people problem somewhere in your process. We have a couple of checks set up to aid with capturing first article issues. First, of course, the kit is checked against the BOM to ensure that all of the parts match. Then, we

It isn't an FDA validation. I think Steve has centered the problem. I have already defined all the steps and all the procedures of the process, but now I must run X boards, Y times, through each piece of equipment (as he said before); the question is

Defining failure modes will help determine what you need to quantify in all processes. Personally I wouldn't pursue the DoE angle (varying setup parameters to determine robustness). 1)How about % pad coverage, paste thickness, and accuracy? Define w

Some great legal language here, Dave. Guess some people don't like their knowledge being shared. Probably shouldn't publish it to the interwebs if that's the case.
