Hello, According with quality standards TS16949 ,QS 9000 etc. improvement can be perform when the process is stable and capable. So, if DOE is method for improvement it is a good idea, first to run SPC for investigation process stability and capa

You are not wrong in monitoring the Product (your really not monitoring the process). This methodology is valuable if your process is unstable (SPC is used to stabilize process). There is value in "real time" inspection of a process's product as lon

Simple differences. Both processes require a very similar machine platform, controlled motion, vision fiducial recognition and alignment of a substrate (PCB or hybrid ceramic) to the "image", the image being either a stencil (hence stencil printing)

When you look at the capabilities of Combo machines they tend to sacrifice performance when compared to separate X-ray and AOI machines, meaning they don't do either the X-ray or AOI operations as well as a machine that was designed to do only one. A

Cal, Our parent company is a FAB and they are about to release a new generation of parts. Usually the die is qualified in a simple TSOP form factor. This time the first product quals will take place in the BGA and CSP from factors rather than the t

Hello phil, The use of AOI systems give us the opportunity to auto-collect defect information much the way you're using them now. AOI systems become extremely effective when the collected data is used to perform some positive change into the process.
