Address,

I too would like some information on an alternative method to serial labeling.  
I currently label (self affixed labels) each PCBA with serialized label on the 
solder side but usually end up loosing it in the wave (It's not possible to 
label on the comp sidedue to real estate).  Our contract manufacturer has not 
been receptive to our needs in affixing this label at their facility prior to 
assembly.  They do not currently track their defects so have not had the drive 
to inforce the labeling.  For us though, the label is necessary for tracking 
as field failures, stock, etc.

     I posted this question before but either got no response or people 
     responded when I was having trouble with technet.
     
     Anyone know anything about marking equipment. I want to replace our 
     labeling process. Either ink or laser should work.
