This thread is not new, but this is a great question- wish we'd seen it sooner. In our experience, manufacturers are only using 10-50% of their machines' capacity. Many on here will agree that it's common for electronics manufacturers to accept low S

A fair price.... well its the feeders that retain value. I know if you were to sell an Essemtec distributor a machine with say 10 banks of CLM feeders that old, they would give you perhaps only £10k. Refurb CLM feeders are ~£3k gbp (or about 1/2 of n

I batch print boards, we're talking maybe 1/2 days worth at a time into a magazine. Its not a unique approach, especially if you don't run a fully inline process. However to do that you need a paste that has a decent tolerance of being treated that w

Hi toki, First of all it depends on how much the company would like to invest in such a methodology. Second of all, why would you make a line to be single lane - double line one after each other, is that automotive / medical standard, not to handle

Hello Kristof, We use 1 PC which does line control and programming. We always boot the PC up first, then when it is fully booted, then we turn the machine on, we let it zero set, then we send the job over (this is how we do it when everything works)

Hi Processman, I would say that 92% is realistic if you have low mix - high volume manufacturing. In this case, the only reason for the machines to stop is to: - change reel (on ASM machines you can splice them together, so theoretically with ASM

Thank you Michal. Very much appreciated. We are thinking along the same lines. However, we are being very afraid to even cut the official wire ties that are securing the head 1 and head 2 wiring. We have a new VAC2 solenoid in transit that will arr

Totally agreed regarding underlying issues if we were continuously on the edge of defects. I think the question for me becomes, when a customer isn't specifying requirements or any particulars: at what point is reworking pointless/waste of time &

For contract manufacturers, Unless expectations/requirements are particularly specified by customers OR there is a discussion and contract in place, what are the expectations when it comes to the assembly standards and practices? Is J-STD essenti
