USOS software has ability to detect bad marks on the PCB. Just select an arbitrary area clear of components and apply a sticker to that place. The size of the sticker is not important, as you can define the search area. In the Product Editor, go to c

APPLICATION: SMT CARRIER TAPE FEATURE: �� High efficiency: joining is accomplished without shutting off the machine. The SMT machine can increase output 5%-15%. �� Reducing SMT machine and feeder abrasion: There is no need to unload & reload feeder

The truth is that TH will give you better mechanical stability. If it is a part where you risk strip off the pads of SMT connector, don't make this transition to SMT. If it is a one time cable plug there and there will be not too much pressure, go fo

Thanks to all for your quick answers. I will do a prototype to test mechanical stability on USB-A, SMT version and will decide the next steps for there. Best Regards.

You might want to look at pin in paste. It is not very common but I have seen it work very well.

Obviously the cost difference between only smt and smt+th is huge though TH only 1 components,they need different material,machines,tools and control methods,so if possible just use only smt process to assemble all components,but to verify if the usb

Simulating with what? In developed countries manual labour is expensive but is also still the most common solution to fitting though hole parts, even if the board are then wave-soldered. Mixing SMT and THT on what sounds like a very simple product wi

Hi SMTnet, I'm newbie here and searching for information on a pcb reconvertion. So in order to reduce costs on a small pcb+ componentes+assembly I need your experience on assembling only SMT components vs SMT+TH; the point is actually my PCB has abou

Since I asked the question - here is what we have identified. We are doing what we call a jump score. Routing critical areas with v-score in non-critical areas. We have optimized the v-score depth as much as we can without having separation through h
