Cyclone/ Stein Automation has excellent board handling capabilities and an
excellent engineering staff to compliment its hardware. Cyclone/ Stein are
working on automation our whole power electronics assembly line from screen
printing to final assembly.

At the ATE show in Chicago they featured a new conveyor system that is
spectacular.

*Subject: [TN] Continuous Flow
*
*
*We are working on Continuous Flow for High Mix Low Volume.  Final
*Assembly, ICT,
*Functional Test are the challenges (i.e. everything after Wave Solder).  I
*wanted to inquire if anyone has done this successfully, what challenges or
*problems, and what type of equipment (i.e. workstation/conveyors).
* I know JOT
*has Final Assembly conveyors and workstations (i.e. their Pallet
*System).  I'm
*not sure how good those are.  We do have JOT Board Handling
*Equipment, which
*works good.
*
*Thanks!
*Joel
