Ron, have a look at http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/cgmphome.html It would be a nightmare, if your plant is not structured to support it. It's a huge pain in the fanny even when you (alledgedly) are. I'm not sure what you're pursuing, but if you're c

Hi Ken First of all, I think you are right to point out that the uptime should be calculated on the SMD line bottleneck. But I have some comments to your posting in general: The SMD line bottleneck, you say, is always the palcement machine. This i

The Electra is Electrovert's top-of-the-line wave solder machine. Just about the best you could get. Conveyor concerns should focus on the condition of the extruded rails. A machine that new should not have a problem, buy worth a look see. Find out i

Individual process steps are approximately the same length of time for reworking a BGA. You seem to be comparing the use of the automated SMT line versus an off line rework station. Consider that the off line station is a complete paste print, pick

Determine the number points (parts) on a pc board to be measured/connected in temperature profile according to the purpose of the profile. For instance: * A thread here on SMTnet recently discussed �copper plate� profiling. It is used primarily for

Not as such. Generally, people tailor their profiles to produce glam solder connections on their boards. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for discussion on the factors affecting solder reflow recipes. What is the best way to get these PCB made to s

This looks like it may be a good application for an Air-Vac or Wenesco type solder station. It is a solder pot that has a small motor to pump solder up through a chimney. You can put different nozzles on the top of the chimney, so you only apply sold

Whoaaaa Genny, Its not that bad!!! The difficulty factor is in assembling your own boards is all releative to how many, and how difficult they are. Most studies show that the vast majority of defects in smd assembly are generated in the application

Wow, you have received a lot of suggestions and opinions. Here is one more for the record. First try to improve the performance of your sub-contractor. While you are doing that start bringing in low quantities of parts to develop your in-house cap

There seems to be less play in the pocket than with other parts i've loaded. I was assuming the large nozzle would work better but for reasons unknown to me it didn't. I also tried a 1mm and had parts all over the machine (can you say hand place 100+
