There is a practise within the industry of an Inspector inspecting a board, and that same Inspector performing touch-up. My opinion is that the Inspection and Touch-up operations should be separate functions whereby the Inspector is not performing th

Process, Process, Process....inspection of process, no touch-up, no rework. This always works better.

OK I am counting someone knowing this. True or False, if my touch-up operators touch-up the smt solder joints too many times will this make the joint weaker? if yes why? and what happens to my intermetalic layer? I have insisted if it looks good don

Generally QC is a different deptpartment than touch-up people. Most touch-up people are just general operators, so to keep their job they always see the solder joint as "not enough". Q.C. people are generally a bit better, but know they may be call

QC --> Touch-up --> QC --> Assembly After SMT all PWB goes to QC, QC Inspects and marks all that needs rework then PWB's goes to Touch-up to fix what QC marked for rework. After that All reworked boards goes to QC for another verification and stampi

We are having a discolorization problem with the gold fingers on our PCB's. I have been made aware that there is a gold touch-up paint (masking) that is available. Would anyone know where I can get my hands on some of it? Any help would be appreci

if I was going to operate that way, I'd combine Inspection/Touchup, and put rework off at another location. If you're pulling one panel out of the oven every 20 seconds, I wouldn't think you'd want to stop your line so your touchup person can perform

You're correct. Operators shouldn't be doing "touch-up". [No value added] Take that as your clue for areas to improve process. Babbling about touchup: * Left to itself, touchup feeds on itself, operators are parinoid that inspectors will "ding" th
