Take a look at the ROI tools supplied my MyData and others and draw inspiration from there. Presumably if you are looking at a higher speed line you are looking at higher throughput than you currently achieve or possibly fewer/shorter shifts? The eco

MY500 on a NPI/Proto line makes a lot of sense and can really cut down on costs and downtime due to stencil revisions/issues. Especially once you have a 250 line BOM loaded on the line and you find out the stencil has a couple of critical apertures

I would not go there. If you are forced to buy part from different manufacturer because of supply shortage then you will need to make change to machine program and that means a lot of downtime unless you can do that with 2-3 clicks. My company uses I

Yes X-outs impact cycle times. Firstly, unless your board house is adding the bad marks you have the added labor of doing it yourself and programming your machines to look for them. Additionally, it adds time to each machine in the line (except for s

In response to the original question, �Does anyone know what the industry standards are for machine utilization on a SMT line or across a shop floor?� Ceeris International published a report showing an industry average of 52% utilization of staffed

Hi Friend. I recently went through this same project in my factory. Initially, I spent quite a bit of time out on the lines (6) collecting data. After getting an overall idea of where and what the activities were I created forms and work instructio

Walter, First of all, if I recall correctly you should not need a 6" leader for starting a reel on a Mydata. Mydata's have a reel leader extension attachment with a V hook at the end so you can avoid this need for a long leader. You should be able t

First of all you need to show them why this particular machine is a problem. there is alot of things you can do to show this: 1. Keep log of downtime: When, why. 2. Keep track of upkeep expences: annual cost to keep operable. 3. Perform capability a

Hi Dave, It sounds like you haven�t been shopping for stencil cleaners in awhile. Ultrasonic stencil cleaners start at $12,900, evaporators start at $6,800 and 440-R SMT Detergent is $19.00 per gallon. For $19,719.00 you get everything you need to
