The first question is, is this a high mix, low volume environment or vice versa? If it's the former then Kens solution is something you might want to look into. Depending on your feeder set up you might check to see if your operators have been traine

We rarely use the tack-time on our machines, even if we run products that are populated with large components. ( ICS, Tant caps etc.) There is a default tacktime for each component on the component library, is called Speed Data. For the components

I am having problems achieving correct pre-heater temperatures with our Hollis solder wave. Our original "Verification Golden board" program uses a conveyor speed of 5ft per minute and pre-heat temps of 300, 350, 400 respectively. Our "golden Board"

Brad, If I were you I would not take advice from anyone on any forum. What you need to do is have all your requirements on a spreadsheet (i.e. part sizes, # of feeders, etc) and then call 2 to 3 minor players in the Pick and place arena and then call

I agree with Steven. I have been involved with AOI for over 18 years. I was first introduced to it when I worked for Solectron. The AOI machines back then were more or less used as a selling item and very cumbersome to use. I have used and or operate

Good Morning, We also have several Mirtec M2HTL's. They have been responsible for taking SMT off of the defect radar screen. We are also using one to verify the through hole auto insert process. I have been told by our President that the Mirtec's we

Doing a head-to-head comparison is best. Use the same boards with the same defects to compare programming time, inspection speed, amount of inspection types you can program for and of course defect detection. Finding the defects that occur in your pr
