Hi, I've been assigned to evaluate or do a capability study of our SMT line/equipment for our new products...what are the concerns that I need to look into? thanks and regards,

Most prominent placement machine suppliers understand well the capability index of their machines and can ship each machine with specific information on the capability of that machine in a very nice bound volume. You should contact the companies of

Trying to find a manufacturer with the capability to hold a registration tolerance of +/- .001" in LPISM. To be done on ceramic substrates, with a maximum panel size of 5.0" x 7.0".

FORMULA OTHER THAN LxBxZ? - Paste is X% [X=~50] metal by volume. Your paste supplier knows the value of 'X'. HOW TO ACHIEVE A CONSTANT REFLOW PROCESS CAPABILITY? - Buy a capable oven, operate and calibrate it properly.

Can anyone lead me to information on capability studies for SMT Production, I know of several points during production to take relevant readings but is there an industry standard to adhere to and if so what? I have searched the archives to no avial.

For the reflow process check out KIC THERMAL at kicthermal.com. They make a product called 24/7 which can collects data for process capability. I beta tested the unit about 2 years ago....interesting stuff.

I think if the machine has the capability of multiple fields of view (Quad systems do!) You can mesure any device with the visual camera to circa 80mm2. Simon

Dear Colleagues, I would like to know if there is a requirement to carry out MSA/capability studies on SMT machines when you move a line. What paramaters do you concentrate on to check. More importantly how is the MSA carried out Cheers Crishan

Steve, Contact Aegis and ask to talk to a guy by the name of Eugene C. I'm pretty sure they do have the capability. Anything is possible with $$$.

Here are the basics of determining that your process is in control and capable - http://lorien.ncl.ac.uk/ming/spc/spc9.htm There are tons of stuff like this on the web.
