Teaching trays (considering you already have the package in your library) takes about 2 mins. Really comes in handy for small batches when ICs/BGAs are supplied in small strips.

Seems like this is a common theme. It was always an uphill battle with management to get them to understand small strips costs us more time which in turn costs more money. Our management never got it so we had to think of ways around it.

We used to use the Tapesplicer tool available from http://www.tapesplice.com (Sierra Electronics), in a high mix, low volume environment with MyData's (older feeders). Short review: It worked. Longer review: First, technique is everything. Splicin

First, how oxidized are these solder balls? Will the take solder using your routine flux / paste? Second, on restoring solderability, the three basic methods you can use to restore solderability on components are: * Highly active fluxes in a retinn

We have had some experience with the immersion tin. The appearance can be "bright" or "dull". Don't discount the fact that it is "bright" doesn't necessarily make it HASL. Furthermore, I personally have never heard of a board manufacturer "stripping

It does sound as if you may have an encoder problem. Have you cleaned the encoder glass ? A spec of grease or other matter on theis glass can cause problems. Be careful when cleaning because you do not want to break it. Clean the front of the encoder
