So the only difference between the "regular solderers" and the BGA people is trace repair? If that is it than you should put the pay in range with your PCB repair people. We do not pay any extra for BGA rework since all they do is wick pads (common

AOI should be operated by an INSPECTOR! Inspectors do not operate assembly machines or automated assembly equipment, why would an operator run an Automated Inspection? Are your operators certified to IPC standards to make calls on bad solder joints o

Are not the operators responsible for the quality of the product? Q.C. should not be responsible for assembling quality product they are there to ensure that the quality has been met. "Fire them"

Good point tommy, I think we are confusing what we are talking about here. It was not asked if the operators should do inspection. It was asked if an operator should pass boards through a machine. The operator is not inspecting anything just as t

We don't have one of those cool air compressed syringes to dispense adhesive. We have to do it by hand. My question is does anyone have any suggestions on syringe size, needle size etc... for successful deposition of SMT adhesive? I know you can go s

I witnessed this at our sister company. It seems to be their standard process. It is not my place to interfere with their processes. I was just curious if there was any chance of brittle solder joints or other defects that might be caused from the WS

The way it works is the liquid solder immediatley cures (or should I say burns) the WSOL where ever it touches it. This hardens and keeps it in place and protects whatever is under it. Some of the WSOL falls of in the pot. I am suprised that the burn

Are there any softwares OR functions inside of the softwares that allow a designer that is creating a very large complicated wiring diagram with say....many terminal blocks and connectors etc... to run a point to point check on his drawing? Bascially

I have alot of experience creating assembly drawings for SMT and THT products. However, we are now doing very large ,complicated box builds that have many terminal blocks, point to point and cable harnesses. It is my job to create these assembly doc
