SEPTEMBER 2021 I SMT007 MAGAZINE 95
IPC issued a statement
from President and CEO
John Mitchell on the
expected passage of the
bipartisan infrastructure
bill in the U.S. Senate.
There are a multitude of electronic circuit assem-
bly manufacturers, high-volume/low-product mix
to low-volume/
high-product
mix. Only
you will know
where you
are in that
definition.
It has not been
easy to be a
woman-owned
business in the
electronics
industry. Most
people assume
that my company was handed
down to me by my father. That's

CAMtek from scratch came about
after a series of events that left me
bewildered and frustrated.

Leveraging Data Analytics in
Recall Scenarios
Minimize the impact of
product recalls by using
smart data to uncover
the root cause. One of
the most effective ways
to minimize the impact
of a recall is to define
the root cause of the defect quickly and
accurately, thereby minimizing the num-
ber of products that need to be recalled.

Knowledge Continuity in Manufacturing
"Why do we do it that way?" "Because we always
have." Those can be some of the most dreaded
words on the manufacturing floor. It means that
someone decided at one point to do things a
certain way, and you don't know whether it's a
critical aspect of the assembly process, or just
another roadblock to improvement.
Communicating Effectively with EMS Providers
For the past several decades, OEMs have used outside
EMS providers to build a multitude of products from
PCBAs to complete box and cable assemblies. Com-
municating effectively is the key to success in getting
products from concept to reality. For companies that
want to form a good working relationship with EMS
providers, there are several steps that should be
followed to ensure a successful product build.
