Maybe a silly question, but........... Sometimes we get PCB's in with defective(distorted) fiducials that the production equipment(printer, PnP, etc) does not recognize. It would be great if there was a product out there to replace the defective f

I don't know how accurately you're going to be able to put a replacement down. You could use BGA replacement pads, but that is a lot of time and the results will be shakey. On the DEK, make a copy of your program and teach some pads or through hole
