80??? Whatever leads to you to that assumption? I'd love to see a study stating that. Based on experimental results at our facility, overvolume due to the screener parameters have rarely caused a solder short. so, in conclusion, does one need a solde

When I do a patent search, I find that most of the patents related to our business come out of Japan. I wonder, if in this country, government and business do enough to encourage employees and reward their ideas. For entrepreneurs a patent is quite

We do not use IPC 9850. �The stated purpose of IPC 9850 is �to standardize the way machine vendors specify placement rates with specific accuracy requirements for different components�. It also provides a form to record the test results, which inclu

I don't like hand lotions in the assembly area. If hand lotion is needed I would have the operators use latex gloves or finger cots. The lotion can be transfered to the bare board or assembly causing reliability issues. Lotion transfered to a bare PC

I understand your point, and generally agree with you about no lotions in the production area. My question for you and the others is what to do with the person whose skin is so dry it does not make good contact with their ESD wristband? I do not li

I worked for a medical instrument manufacturer a few years ago and we had to calibrate all measurement devices. That included everything from our vapor phase oven's thermocouples to 6 inch steel rulers. I don't see any logical justification if you'

Ron, you need to check all the thermal couples are in good shape and clean before ask the outside service to do the calibration. After the machine calibrated and I suggest that you run 2 profiles and all the heating zone set at the same temperture,

I agree with Dave. The only reliable way is to perform a time study using a watch with decimal minutes. Setup the study using an average rated operator and time 10 component insertions (from pick up to hands off), time 10 component soldering operati

The EMPF has a great Paper regarding the Omega meter. www.empf.org (Click the Tech Pubs Icon) Here you will find a host of technical papers. These papers were relevant in their time but most have proved to be irrelevant in current day manufacturing.
