???? What? I think I follow your logic. Bottom line is, using the same name, p.1 (that's p (dot) 1) over and over for every stencil you produce can lead to confusion both in our CAM dept as well as our vendors. Like calling every board you produce PN

Perhaps the inexpensive program called SMT-Maestro can be of help for some of your data manipulation ? Like Excel it doesn't take gerber directly, but it can cope with any delimited ascii file. A trial is available at http://www.smtinfo.net/smtmae

Dear adam Sounds to me like it may not be Salt water contamination or even flux residue's, as both of these are commonly cleaned semi aqueosly or with IPA. Have you considered it may be Talcum powder used as fillers in solder resist, mineral salts

If you lay a flat edge on the PBGA, it is visibly warped? How much of a warp? 0.001, 0.010, 0.050 what? What is your pcb temperature just prior to entering the spike process (zone or step or what ever you call it)? Is it between 165 and 175 C?

We verify each reels P/N prior to placing into the machine for any reason. I have been bit even harder than John. We built 80 boards with 672 per 0402s when we discontinued the two operator process. We now even have them read the numbers backwards

The color does mean something, If you know the manufacturer their spec sheet will tell you. The three and 4 digit only applies to larger resistors, There are 1% 0603 that have only 3 digits. You may want to just call them all 5%. Russ
