Yes, pre-loaded feeders is the best way. If you do not have that option as you are high mix or do work for different companies that have many different part numbers, I would guess that your printer will take about 15 minutes to get ready, each HSP f

ICT is generally a manufacturing verification test. Coverages vary depending on the board. I've run lots with as low as 25% coverage on the board (but produced 98% FPY post board assembly). Functional test is exactly what it sounds like. Checking

Here are the basics for theta issues in teaching: 1. CAD part library should match machine part library orientation. 2. If your placement orientation is correct and your feeding orientation(orientation in your feeder) is correct, there should be no

Can you not just check the part when it is on line and being loaded into the machine? You should only need to check this once. Verify your setup to the bom and not your assembled boards to the BOM. Correct setup and program = correct boards. More

TL;DR: I like internal part numbering systems for passive chips and the like, and keeping MPNs for active components (or components with many variants and/or options that could be easily confused as equivalents). I've always been a fan of internal

Here, there are two possibilities - either it is a new board to us (ie built elsewhere previously) or it is a new product for the company requesting the build. If new to us only, ask for a sample PCB. You will need CAD data for pick & place machines

I started a new company that has a Testronics 504 AOI machine. No one knows how to program it, and they can't find the manual. So far I have been able to load a centroid file, and set the board size. However, when i load everything, all my parts a

This number is going to vary hugely depending on the machine, how you operate and how many feeders you have. Smaller outfits might have a single operative whose job it is to setup, load, run & program the line. Regardless of how changeover focused t

Barcode!! The Siemens machines can have bar code Options added.On the Siemens Machines the bar code S/W is a little archaic. In theory You would have a bar code on a reel of part and a barcode on the feeder location (They are the black codes on the s

Start with a load cell (force sensor), you will need one that can handle the force range you will be placing. Someone please correct me on this if I'm wrong but I seem to recall that placement force runs in the range of a couple hundred grams. Chec
