Hope that your PCB is supported evenly, I mean really plane to the conveyer rail. If not this may warp the PCB upwards, causing fiducials to be identified not accurately. Also I suggest you to check Mark Info of the fiducials and have a look at the t

When to implement SPI in your SMT line

Sorry for such a generic response, but you should consider SPI if you are not happy with the results of your printer. That is probably measured by defects at the AOI. SPI machines are quite expensive. I don't see the point of them when you can just b

Building on what Evtimov said, folks who are not familiar with SPI get freaked out when they first deploy it. You need to have an understanding of whats going on and how to adjust when you get "failures" I would advise that anyone who is g

Have you created block offsets for each board in the panel? We have rotated baords in panels but have not had to use block fiducials, we just use board fids. We place 0402s and 16mil fine pitch on multiple boards in a panel with boards rotated 180

Yeah, James, we've got block repeats set up so we're getting the boards built with just pcb fids, and very accurately. I want to be able to build with block fids, though, in case we have any issues with the panelization. It's happened in the past a

Yep, we did it just the way you described, I think. What we did NOT do was a block conversion. We just built it a board at a time, to see if things were accurate when we first programmed it. They weren't, so we did away with the block fids, adjusted

We always do block conversion and have never had a problem. Is there a problem with the accuracy of your PCBs from the vendor? If you can get a panel placed correctly the next panels should also place correctly. I just created a 2x8 panel with hal

We purchased a used machine and can't get the block fiducial function to work properly (PCB fids work fine). I can teach them and the machine will use them but the correction is worthless. We first tried it on a 2x2 panel where the top two boards wer

In Block repeat information did you put the rotation in before optomizing? This is where the machine gets the rotation of these individual boards. The Block fiducials are good to use, but they aren't for defining rotation. If you optomized using note
