Jeff, I suspect you are just the guy running the line. The things you asked are not anything out of the norm. Go into your manufacturing engineering's office, grab that video game out of their hands and tell them you're not giving it back to them unt

Seriously folks Kester has some major issues with their thickeners. Do not spend time fixing your process that is the same as it has been. As a post here stated, Alpha is going to Mexico, we will see probs form them here pretty soon as well. Kest

Our PO require conformance to current version of 033, but don't have quite the onerous penalty you propose. So, you reject the mispackaged part at incoming, MRB decides on a corrective action, and supplier get dinged. If the supplier responds and do

Yes, we are in the same boat. We get stuff unsealed, not labeled correctly, wrong packaging or all of the above. Im going to sit down with the purchaser here this week and get this figured out. Being packaged correctly still doesnt mean the parts arn

It depends. If it's a current desing that can't be changed, we go outside the box on any issue to see if we can build it. Then it all comes down to time versus dollars. If it's a new product we offer suggestions to the customer and try to bang out

For reflow, bump up your profile as hot as you can go as allowed by your paste manufacturer will allow. If you can change solder paste without too much red tape, several solder paste manufacturers make a transitional paste designed for mix of lead a

In the US, these OEMs have this information, becuase they participate in a market study where they all post sales to a single market study. Check with them directly, and they may share this data with some degree of accuracy. I'd be shocked if Sieme

I'd be shocked if Siemens was going away. They are a very big group in a very big company. Yes, but recently we have seen several big groups from a very big companies been sold out (ie. Dover and some of his kids, etc.) Asia-India are good referen
