I have been asked a very good question but have not been able to find a good answer. IPC for both PCB and PCBA refer to the X & Y dimensions to measure warp and twist but how would you determine the warp and twist for a round PCB or PCBA?

Hi Dave, Thank you for your inputs as they were good suggestions. I however let out one important detail and that this is IMS material and not glass reinforced so I think that there is more bending going on during processing than warping and twistin

Assuming the traces run parallel and perpendicular to each other, I'd choose one direction the traces run as "x" and the other direction for "y." Then I'd pick a unique identifier on the board to insure proper orientation. Next, I'd measure warp and

Hi Guys, I've compared stencil printing adhesive versus acquiring a dispensing equipment. Had breakdown all the costs against each other. It end up that Stencil Printing Adhesive is more costly than equipment dispensing machine in the long term (5 y

Cleaning time SHOULD be accounted for into labor costs when costing product because although it CAN be done off-line, you still need to clean the contaminated screen and this has to be done by a worker who is (hopefully) charging for this (remedial)

Melbourne Ozzies: Have you been to any Olympic events? 2X Payscale: Why not just hire a worker to fill-in for the additional time? Dispenser vs Printer: I'm amazed. Please send me your analysis. I'd love to justify a dispenser, based on numbers.

Quite simply, when the stencil is being auto cleaned, the operator can be doing another element of work. Also as mentioned, the stencil will be thoroughly cleaned as opposed to having any human errors leading to blocked or damaged stencils. The time

What�s wrong with your printing process and what improvement do you expect from dispensing ? I can imagine that it�s more convinient just to have this process inline, no worrying about stencils, cleaning, changing printer setting, just replacing a ca

Dear Dreamsniper, A big hidden cost in any cleaning system is the cost of diminished production and rework. I assume you are cleaning the adhesive stencils manually since there is no equipment cost in your formula. Manual cleaning of adhesive sten

Not sure if I agree with your justification but I might need to read it a few more times to figure it out. I agree that aquiring a dispensing machine is is a good purchase. Maybe you should let him in on the material savings. How many adhesive stenci
