My first printer was a Speed Print machine back in 2001. We still have it as a backup. I needed a printer quickly so I bought an EKRA from a show. We were very disappointed with that machine. The service was terrible. Parts were impossible to get. I

So you are saying that building to class III is going to prevent failures? I disagree. Class III is trying to hit target condition in every aspect of the production of the circuit board. That my friend does not ensure failures from happening. I see

Our company would like to be able to inspect 0201 parts using our YesTech YTV 2050. To do this, we have purchased a doubling lens from YesTech that attaches to our top camera. The problem is, we bought our YesTech used from another CM, not from Yes

They must sell parts and support machines for 7 years after the date they last built it. The registation fee is on the edge. If you can find that they supported any customer and did not charge for it then you have a good case against them. The proble

No-one should be accepting parts based solely on the presence of a C of C - from an independent or even an authorized distributor. You should have a QC plan in place that includes comprehensive visual inspection, microscope, x-ray, XRF, decapsulation

I would assume every EMS company runs into this issue on a daily basis. Before we get to how a machine handles it, I would recomend setting up an acceptance criteria with your board supplier... if you plan on accepting them at all. (ex. No more than
