Hi folks, thanks for all the tips. We have run our first batch of these flexi boards now. I had the PCB suppliers make me some 1.6mm FR4 carriers to lay the boards on to carry them through the process. (1 flat & 1 with cutouts for the second side)

We have the same problems with cut/tape parts. But, we specialize in short-run prototypes, so I don't have much of a choice but to deal with it, and find a way to make it as easy as possible. We just demo'd a splice tool from Sierra Electronics (ww

I dont know what kind of volume you use in crystals, but my company manufactures crystals and oscillators, and if the order is over 1000pcs we'll put it on t/r if that what u request. If we dont have any t/r components in stock, well put them on t/r

Yep, Book a holiday and let someone else sort it out. Otherwise e-mail me and I'll talk you through pallets, rigidisers, printer tooling, spray mount, Kapton tape, local fiducials (panels can strech & shrink) etc. Oh, yeah - for the connectors you

The boards were just a little larger than a SOT8. IIRC we had a pizza slicer type depanelizer and it wasn't too bad. We just did enough to populate the bare PCBs we had. Where I am now a customer has us put a QFP and a few other parts on a SOW28 f

Hi, Why not have a look at Philips/Assembl�on, their ACM machine is quite nice. It may also bring you down to Flip Chip, 0201 some through hole and odd form placement. Nice options like bulk feeding, coplanarity tests, fluxing for FC, prom feeders (

We are also a medium volume, high mix contract manufacture, last year we purchased a MYDATA MY12 with Linescan and Hydra. It is a great machine. We had a MultiTroniKs before but it was not as good as the MY-12. The MYDATA will do everything and do

We have a problem with QFN IC's with NiPdAu plated pads. Our ULC's don't see the pads due to the almost ideal reflection. Vision sees the pads almost black. As we don't have OAL-cameras (which can help in this case, I assume), I am thinking of back-l
