Hi, I had a question from our ISO guy asking me how I know that the paste we use is in good condition? The problem is that he saw our operator put some old paste back in a empty jar to reuse it the next day. So his question is how do you know the

We had problems with Panasonic film caps with a previous employer. The first step was to use their recommended pad layouts rather than industry standards for the part sizes. The second much more helpful resolution was to complain like hell to Panaso
