Thanks Rob for your meaningful advice. Instead of just a general average time per component, I think if we have 3 averages, 1 per "component group", we will gain significant accuracy in the cost model. For instance, a motherboard may have 2500+ R and

I noticed that some of our pcb's component legend/designation are unreadable as they are placed under smt pads. Is this correct and according to standard? Although we don't have any problems with them as of now, I would like to know the effects on th

Assuming agressive design rules what is the minimum distance I can get away with between the board edge and a SMT pad and between the board edge and a plated mounting hole ??? (The board is only 1"x2" and the mounting holes are 80 mil dia, 125 mil

We have a my500 jet printer as well as a traditional screen printer. I had been extremely resistant to the idea of getting another screener, considering the jet printer to be superior in almost every way. After research and a biased presentation, I a

New developments in bulk feeding are making this process of feeding passive components more and more attractive to the PCB manufacturers, for whom the tape feeding for a long time was the solution. The rapid growth in the number of passive component

Yes, we have an old Universal axial and they still offer independent machines for axial, radial and DIP components, but I do not have the floor space for that. Some offer "odd form" insertion machines (Juki, Hanwha, Cenncorp)which is the direction I

If you have deep pockets and wish to spend alot of money over the next few years, then yes, call Metcal. Whatever solder iron you plan to use, it is my suggestion that you take a look at the board that you are going to solder. How big are the pads? H
