The GSM sounds great except for one thing--you won't fit all your feeders on it. That is, assuming your feeder list is what you want to have resident on the machine at all times. I think you could rule out 80% of the machines you are considering b

Sounds like your contract assembler has some serious issues. You should not be getting defects anywhere neer that amount. If you do decide to go that route again find one with a good AOI machine at a minimum and you should also supply them with a fun

I am sure I know which video you are talking about with the 7722-FV shaking. It is a video where the camera was on the table next to the machine. It was not a sturdy table to begin with. This was done by one of our customers in NYC. It does make

Fellows, We are considering getting an AOI machine to inspect boards that our vendors are giving us (we outsource the assembly of PCBAs). We have low volumes of boards, but every time a defect does slip by our human inspectors, it causes a lot of

Hi Jax, I didn't understand your question very well. I'll try to answer based on whatever I could understand! Most Gerber viewers available in the market - especially free versions, DONOT have the capability to group apertures to build component. T
