Thanks all for your replies. I ended up getting an older second hand machine (2003 Heller 1707 EXL) from a local company upgrading their assembly line. It is in mint conditions and was used in air conditioned room and had maintenance every 3 months.

Unfortunately I don't have the product in hand at the moment. I'm trying to pre-empt the next run. I will see if I can get an image!

We've had to hand solder 1 or 2 pins in cases like this or you could use chip bond or some adhesive on the component body.

HDD is dead - making funny noises when trying to initialize. I'm getting a second hand one from another KE2050 (first thing will be to make an image) Aurash

Solderability could be checked pretty quickly...try to solder the parts by hand, or try to get solder to flow to the terminals. That was the start of how we discovered our issue when we ran into it.

Use Data matrix barcode 2d.size nothing smaller than 4x4. Larger the barcode easier to read. Good quality hand scanner.

SPI is especially useful when you start going to lower pitch/size components. Best use is inline to identify issues. It is a powerful tool in the right hands and a burden when operated by wrong people. I value it more than the AOI equipment.

Thanks for the reply. We are ramping up using soldering techs and convective hand soldering. We have investigated w/many soldering robot vendors. The number of units is over 100K. We will be automating using a dispense+pick and place for greater c
