Remote Line Snapshot
Fixed‑fee, remote review of SPI/AOI trends, stencil/paste setup, and recent profiles. 60‑min call + 10‑point action list.
Surface Mount Technology • PCB Assembly • Process Excellence
Unlock higher first‑pass yield and stable throughput—without guesswork.
Data-driven fixes, documented gains.
Remote‑first consulting by default; onsite by arrangement when remote isn’t sufficient.
Remote‑first • Mountain Time (US) business hours • Onsite by arrangement
200+ NPIs supported
≤ 2wTypical audit to roadmap
3–10×Fewer print‑stage defects*
*Results vary by design, paste, stencil, and equipment condition.
Quick capabilities snapshot
- Stencil design review (area ratio, wall quality, coatings)
- Print process setup (gap, speed/pressure, understencil clean)
- Reflow profiling (TAL, soak/linear, alloy tuning, voids)
- Selective solder (preheat, flux, wave recipes, hole fill)
- SPI/AOI/AXI correlation & false call reduction
- DFM/DFX and NPI launch playbooks
- Operator & technician training
Certified to IPC standards (e.g., J‑STD‑001/IPC‑A‑610).
Vendor‑neutral recommendations.
Core services
Pick a package or mix-and-match based on your line’s bottlenecks.
SMT Line Health Audit
2–3 day onsite assessment: stencil/print, placement, reflow. Includes KPI baseline, quick wins, and a 90‑day roadmap.
Print & Stencil Tuning
Aperture tweaks, squeegee speed/pressure, snap‑off, nano‑coats, support tooling—reduce insufficients and bridging fast.
Reflow & Voiding Control
Tailored profiles for alloys and mass; tombstoning and void mitigation with data‑driven changes, not superstition.
SPI/AOI/AXI Correlation
Tighten limits, reduce false calls, and align inspection with real risks. Improve FPY without hiding defects.
NPI Launch Support
DFM/DFX, panelization, tooling, golden board creation, and build‑ready documentation. Hit schedule with confidence.
How engagements work
1) Discovery (remote)
Short call, share recent builds & KPIs, align on goals and constraints (remote‑first).
2) Remote Deep‑Dive
Screen‑share sessions, data review (SPI/AOI logs, profiles, paste/stencil), and controlled trials you can run on your line.
3) Roadmap & Optional Onsite
Prioritized fixes with owners and timelines. Limited onsite visits available by arrangement when remote isn’t sufficient.
