Pete makes great points. Taking a slightly different angle, use your placement equipment's software to help you. It keeps track of the number of picks and attempts for each location. Study these numbers for a week and determine the capability of p

Steve, Currently we are using selective pallets and the best piece of advice is to find a supplier that will be able to handle the requirements of the selective wave process, for example proximity of chips to PIH devices, and pallet thickness etc. We

I�m unclear about � "BB training"??? "BB candidates"? Is BB [Box-??] [Bhote-??] a Design Of Experiments technique like Taguchi? As a start, the following affect the "attrition rate": * Assembly machine program * Machine calibration and maintenan

without knowing your machine, I guess the axis does not find the zero pulse. You may have to re-place the incremental or linear encoder for the X-axis. Some vendors use proximity switches for a zero pulse which could be defective. If the axis stops i

Thanks, guys. Hi Larry, long time no "see". Dave, 60k dots out of a Camalot 2800 does not a "Dispenser Boy" make. :P I'd print them in a heartbeat if the proximity to radial leads didn't necessitate me placing radials first. Oh, wait, I'd have to

Have you tried doing a reflow of the BGA with the connectors removed? This should solve the question of connector proximity giving you a problem. Also, try rotating the board 90 deg in your rework station before reflowing a BGA. Be sure to rotate th

Dose anybody know of a method of preventing board sag in the wave process. We have a 2 year old Deltawave. The product we are running is a one sided 10in x 12in panel of 6 PCB's. Pin headers and connectors are near all of the edges. Our current board

Hi Chris, It sounds like you may have to go with your idea of a relief cut into the stencil. Are there any components that need to be printed in close proximity? Is this a high volume?I used to work at a flex house and we had a similar situation. We

What are some general guidelines for the minimum proximity of apertures to a stepdown on a stepped stencil. I have a step from 7 mils to 5 (one mil step each on the top and bottom). How far does the step need to extend beyond the apertures on the
