Hi all All you wave soldering people, have you had any trouble in keeping the copper level of your SAC solder pots under control? How do you combat the gradual rise of copper contents owing to dissolution from through-hole component leads etc.?

Hi, We are using SACX and have not noticed any rise in copper. I do know that there are Solder Bars available without the Copper to try and bring the level under control. aj...

Good afternoon! Typically, we normally recommend testing the pot, and adding either Sn/Ag or just Sn to keep it at bay. One nice thing about the solubility of Cu in Sn based alloys is that it should reach a theoretical upper limit of about 0.1%. I

Hi, The best way is to sort your components for each shape type by expiration date and than by delivery date. This will give exactly what you need to reorganize from lifo to fifo. Best Regards, Alexei

We currently do have part system in place. The problem that we are having is finding the same part used on multiple jobs. We it be sufficient to keep most used and common parts on hand. Then turn kitting into fifo.

I assume you have a part number system. If so, you should kit the reel with less parts first from the same part number. If you don't use part number system, then you probably have components sorted by value and size, which should lead to the same pri

What software do you use to track your parts? We use Manex - it is not perfect but still gives you the opportunity to track parts/jobs relations. For example I know in each moment one particular part goes to 5 currently open jobs. You should explore

We currently have around 20k+ components in stock. I would like to have some opinions on creating a more lean manufacturing system. We check stock in our system and then order parts. Most of time leading to employees looking for parts, or shorts. We

unique mnf/mnf part number. - Be meticulous on maintaining your WO Boms. Train your employees to not circumnavigate keeping the WOBOM accurate to what they kitted/placed on the board. If you keep the one to one part number relationship above this is
