Bach, I was previously an SMT Supervisor with 5 years battling this issue. The following formula has worked well for me after I figured it out - whoich took a long process of trying out new approaches. 1. Production Supervisors must believe they c

Yes we verify every reel by some other operator. We hardly make mistakes now, due to the fact that they have to also write the initials of who verified it. There used to be many mistakes due to wrong reels, but now it is slim to none. It is better t

Hi All, We have 19 Siemens machine running here and lately I was assigned to come out with a proposal on the wrong part issue on Siemens Machines. All of our machines are equip with siemens part verification in which there the part barcode is scanne

I've had the most success in a check/double-check set up. Most people will tell you that it's labor intensive, and they're not wrong. However, I suspect that those people have never had to manually change two components on a thousand boards at a sh

We use Buddy check system + part measure prior to all parts being loaded onto the machines...this is a manual approach but we haven't had a misload in years.... It has been mentioned above but the Operators have a huge role to play no matter what sy

One thing our operators do is compare the part marking at the end of the old reel to the part marking at the beginning of the new reel. We also send the operators sheets of paper that tell what component should be at what location and this sheet also

After I create the pick & place program on the pick and place machine (Assembléon, recently aquired by kulicke and soffa), we generate setup sheets for the operator which lists what component goes into what feeder. Upon loading a tape & reel in the f

charles, i can appreciate the hand held "reel to reel" scanner as a good solution that is very cost effective. during my smt supervision days we had a number of part loading checks. 1. load plan check, 2. scan check, 3. reel to reel manual check.

John: It's easy to put parts in the wrong place!!! Isn't it? Starting at the beginning: check the part at incoming inspection ... measure the value upon receiving the part, if it's possible. Verify the marking on the part. Next: Prevent things f
