AI for Electronics Manufacturing – An Industry 4.0 Architecture and ConditionMonitoring Framework for Printed Circuit Board Assemblies

The key challenge for industry in adopting AI into their manufacturing processes surrounds the accessibility of their data. Many manufacturing industries, especially electronics manufacturin .. read more

Print Performance Studies Comparing Electroform and Laser-Cut Stencils

There has been recent activity and interest in Laser-Cut Electroform blank foils as an alternative to normal Electroform stencils. The present study will investigate and compare the print perfo .. read more

Quantifying Stencil Aperture Wall Quality

The goal of this study was to develop a method by which stencil aperture wall quality can be inspected,and the results quantified. Additionally,we hope to establish a correlation between the st .. read more

Quantitative Evaluation of New SMT Stencil Materials

High yields in the stencil printing process are essential to a profitable SMT assembly operation. But as circuit complexity continues to increase,so do the challenges of maintaining a successfu .. read more

Investigating the 01005-Component Assembly Process Requirements

In 2006 we conducted two formal detailed experiments on the 01005-component assembly process. Two of the most significant findings from those experiments were that a 0.003” thick stencil is req .. read more

Process and Assembly Methods for Increased Yield of Package on Package Devices
