You can try to see if GPAK could help you. They make custom tapes and feeders. I have never used them, but they have some interesting video clips on their site.

Points are: * IPC-9850 - Surface Mount Placement Equipment Characterization * For more on capability studies in general, search the fine SMTnet Archives. For instance: http://www.smtnet.com/forums/Index.cfm?CFApp=1&Message_ID=21222

Send your board files to any pick and place mfg and they will do a throughput analysis for you with your data. Just be careful how they configure the machine. Make sure they all configure the machine the same with respect to feeders and tool tips....

Try Seho http://www.seho.de/index.php?id=2〈=en . At one time they had a machine that ran at near 0% oxygen (all nitrogen)that would solder without flux.

I would look at SST International and Sikama International. You might solder using forming gas. Forming gas is 10% hydrogen and 90% nitrogen or 8% hydrogen and 92% nitrogen. Chris

Universal has been producing Lightning pick and place heads for some years now. How are these heads performing these days? Speed, component range, reliability. Who has worked with them?

Does anyone have experience with DOE software? I see quite a number of them in the market like MiniTab, STATISTICA, Stat-Ease, etc... Which one would you recommend for Manufacturing process improvement study? Thanks for your feedback.

So, a test probe from ICT will not make solder rust?

What do you mean by "what do you mean"? I was just making fun. But if you want, you can take it the wrong way and blame me for everything.
