I'm glad to see so much awareness of the challanges the US manufacturing industry is facing. But in problem solving you first have to realize that there is a problem before a solution can be worked out. I firmly believe that if we could convince the

I see this all the time and we are an OEM that can specify how parts are to be packaged. That being said, purchasing is always having problems finding the part in the specified packaging and end up buying it however they can get it. It's not like w

I need help understanding your problem. * What�s the difference between �e-test failure� and �total failure�? * Why do you think that an ESD induced failure would only be a �total failure�? * What if this is caused by a cracked solder connection? Yo

Good morning Dave F. I am not going to try to touchup the solder pad until I get surface analysis work done, don't want to ruin the evidence. I am getting XPS work done not XRF, XPS is X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy and can see very thin films of o

We have recently implemented a selective solder process using no clean flux. We have experienced a problem with "micro solder balls" Some of them are not so "micro". The equipment manufacturer stated that this is a common problem with no clean select

This sounds like it could be a SIPAD solid solder application. Bring the boards in with the solderpaste already on them in a flattened solid form. Then you could print glue on them without disturbing wet paste. 1.Print glue. (Might take a little

I would take the following method to start Which defect is taking the most labor time to fix. which defect is causing a bottleneck to your production. Fix the one causing the bottleneck first as it will improve your plant output and profits Then
