FMEA, when used correctly, is an excellent tool. The best thing about it is that it holds INDIVIDUALS accountable. The meeting cannot be closed until specific people (usually process types like me!) are assigned specific duties. I agree with Dave tha

Are you sure your custoemr didn't get a little confused with what he saw or was told? When he says optical comparator is he talking about the basic component recognition system? some machines when showing the component (on the CRT) show a template th

Not that easy, because of different thicknesses and pitch, almost no two reels are the same unless they have a common vendor and part type. That would require a mylar template for every vendor and for every pitch variant. We sometimes get parts fro

Quality, consistency and labor savings all wrapped up into one nicely packaged piece of electro-mechanical marvel called AOI. Look for the number of templates one can store per component, lighting options, can it do through hole? Look at reporting

Steve, I thought these were the same format as the CSM, or very close to it. If so, then your *.BRD file has MNT#, X, Y, R, Nozzle-Skip-Feeder#- LocalFid, Designator, Part. Get rid of the header down to MNT = In Excel parse the file so that you get

This is an OUTSIDE corner spec or an inside corner spec? If outside, I don't see why it is a problem, but will require programming the router or making a template (if an "old school" shop.) Yes, if an inside corner, then it requires a small router

I have always heard the glory of plexi glass templates but have never seen them successfully implemented. ECR changes make this system nearly impossible when you are trying to manage thousands of assemblies. We have removed the hand cranks from the
