It's worse than just using the test equipment manufacturer guidelines. Along with that, you have to deal with each of the test fixture fabricators' preferences as well. What this boils down to is a negotiation with the test engineering group as to w

You might want to try going to the manufacturer about getting a refurb unit with a warranty. All of the manufacturers listed provide refurbished equipment deals that can be packaged with feeders. If you go with a broker or 3rd party rebuild hous

I would recommend checking out the stereo microscopes from Vision Engineering (www.visioneng.com). We have used the older and newer style Mantis scopes and our assemblers love them as you can do rework in a very natural and comfortable seating posit

Well, in manufacturings defense, I have to say we LIKE our AOI. We run preset-up jobs that are scanned in by the operators. The bar code on each reel is placed there from incoming. Incoming is a very, very busy place. From time to time we find th

Manufacturing already tried to get a design change but no chance. I guess because the designer is afraid the components could get bent too much if they are mounted with a stand off. Of course everyone who has to manufacture this fist sais: why don't

I found some machine manufacturers put convection nozzles in line parallel with each other instead of staggering them so you get a nice parallel line up the board where there is no flux be it no residue alcohol or VOC Free. The best I could find was
