High-Temp solder for thermocouples

Electronics Forum | Thu Dec 17 10:04:28 EST 1998 | Chrys

Necessity is the mother of invention... The other day I loaned my last bit of high-temp solder to a co-op and never saw it again. Then I had to run a profile and I was in a pickle with no solder. So I ran out to the local Radio Shack to see if the

DPMO calc and Overall Manufacturing Index (OMI) calculations

To clarify on "Opportunities"- With 1000 components, the opportunities are far greater than 1000. You have 1 opportunity per component for a component defect i.e. bent lead, damaged part, tested bad, etc. You have a second opportunity per component

Hey Mike- We ran into the same thing when we purchased a Large CanadianManufacturers repair business. We were creative and first used an ESD bag cut open (Simulate the paper idea) then we used a 3M parts bin and would tip it on its corner to funnel t

Thanks Russ and John, To clarify defects when manufacturing a PCBA, I use (2) groups of defect categories, one for components and one for solder joints. These can be calculated separately or combined A component defect could be: Missing, Miss-alig

Actually that reminds me I remember one place I visited that wore two heel straps for saftey purposes. The reasoning was that if you touched a live wire with one hand and only had the heel strap on the other foot the current would go through your he

SMT Production Performance Metrics

Well, not really... the index does not say much by itself, as you say, you can improve your cycle time by 5% but if you don't update the product rate in your calculation, then you're not providing accurate data so your performance is going to be high

Who designs work cells? Mfg. Eng. or assembly workers?

Dean, My first thought relates to your statement: "I was under the impression that manufacturing engineering was responsible..." We find any statement that begins similar to this to be indicative of other issues within an organization. Unless it'

YesTech doubling lens installation

fishingfool, I would appear obvious that you are connected to Yestech since only inside information could make your statement in paragraph two. I hate to break it to you but a $15,000.00 ransom is exorbitant, most equipment suppliers are half if no
