"It could take us anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months to get DFM feedback from a supplier." This isn't uncommon for engineering teams today. The engineering teams that “do DFM” with suppliers have disjointed systems and disconnected applications for gathering DFM feedback. And even worse processes for tracking and actioning that feedback. So, the DFM process is painful, slow and difficult to analyze. Something’s not right here. In this month’s CoLab Panel, we’re bringing together three industry DFM experts to share their perspectives on the state of DFM today and how companies can rethink DFM in their organizations. 📆 Bring your questions next week on Wednesday, June 5th at 12pm ET!

“We wouldn’t be able to run with the top two complexity customers we have today without ScanCAD,” stated the Executive Director of Technology. “For high-complexity projects, it’s not an option anymore, it’s a necessity.” Read the entire Microboard case study here: https://lnkd.in/gwQHDy5t #scancadinternational #scancad #microboard #casestudy

Every now and then simultaneous technology advancements in related but traditionally separate areas create amazing opportunities to disrupt the status quo. Electronic system design and manufacturing seems to be at such an inflection point of convergence for traditionally individual design processes of a chip, IC package and PCB that are not part of a PLM ecosystem. In other words, why design each one in a silo while all three could be designed together to achieve maximum system performance using #SystemsThinking and a #PLM managed #digitalthread? Read my blog to see how this could (or should?) work to help you excel with your #digitalengineering strategy.

Reaching high accuracy with off the shelf components! 🚀🔧 We would like to give you an in-depth look at a machine we have developed and how we approached its development. The machine assembles a chip into a baseplate resulting in an IVD cartridge. To execute this assembly process, we use off-the-shelf components combined with a vision system developed by Demcon focal. The vision assisted assembly module is then placed into an assembly line that covers the complete production of the IVD cartridge. You can read in this post how we reached the high accuracy of 5 microns by a cycle time of less than 3 seconds. Dynamic Error compensation Precision assembly systems always exhibit some amount of positioning inaccuracy due to various factors. The dominating factor in our system are the inaccuracy of the stages caused by guidance errors of the bearings and manufacturing tolerances. To overcome this problem, we applied markers on the product holders that are clearly visible for the camera system. The stages are moved with a pre-defined trajectory. The position of the markers is measured by the camera system and compared to the pre-defined trajectory. The result is a tracking error correction map which can be used to correct the end position of the stages. The markers are also visible when the chip is loaded to the assembly module. The position of the chip with respect to the markers is determined thus offering the opportunity to also correct for component handling inaccuracies. Relative position measurement We developed an algorithm that determines the best possible alignment of the chip an baseplate. Therefore, the position of the chip with respect to the baseplate is measured. This relative measurement opens up the possibility to using the closed-loop resolution of the Jenny Science direct drive stages instead of using the accuracy. This results in a higher assembly accuracy. Developing this machine has once again proven that by smartly utilizing standard components, we can achieve a very high accuracy within the processes we develop in our production solutions. Our approach to developing the machine also highlights our expertise as a system integrator! #productionsolutions #innovationbycollaboration #systemintegration #assembly #IVD
