I was wondering what type of machine would be the best for high production rate of small pcb boards. A rate of somewhere near 800,000 units a month on a board that is approx 1"x2" 4layer with 20 components.

If......... 1) Assuming you are panelizing them (you would have to actually).... 2) You don't have any fine pitch parts on the board then I would suggest a chipshooter like a Fuji CP-6 or a Panasonic MV2F. Get (2) of these used for around $100K ea

Take a look at Assembleon. The AX-5, similar to the older FCM, is ideal for running smaller PCB's and has one, if not the fastest IPC board speeds in the market. Something else to think about is to purchase a line. If this is an option, many equipme

| We have developed a new process for removing moisture from surface mount devices. We have one site where PCB laminate drying has been reduced to 1.5 hours. A standard oven took 4 hours to do the job. I am looking for a firm who does large scale boa

I wouldn't go with the AX-5 - it's overkill. To make a board in high volume that sounds that simple is a job for a second user chipshooter (Fuji or Pana)as the first reply mentioned. Stay away from FCM1's. I'm sure the AX-5 is a great machine, but

Fastek will get it done with 2 machine and 2 shifts. 2 shifts would need to place 50,000cph. One CP643 with both device tables set could get it done. Having it panelized in 50's, you would need to print 50 panels a hour so get a auto cleaner on the p

I assumed a conservative 25,000 cph for each of the chipshooters...whether it's an MV2F, CP-6, CP-642 etc. You're not going to get 50,000 cph out of (1) CP-643. You might for short periods but not in the long run. It would be suicide to rely on one

Hey Peter, Did some simple math... 800.000PCB's x 20cmp = 1.6million placements 8hrs/day * 22 days/month = 176 hrs You're looking at over 90kCph fulltime! I'd say go with an AX-5 as JAX suggested. Given the product you described you could reach s
