Z-AXIS has installed a new SMT line as part of a $1.5 million expansion that began in the spring of 2024. In our last video, you saw how we load bare boards, apply solder paste, and pick-and-place parts. Now let’s look at the rest of the PCBA process.From Board Turner...
Z-AXIS has installed a new SMT line as part of a $1.5 million expansion that began in the spring of 2024. This is our third SMT line, and it’s already running at faster speeds than the other two.In this video, you’ll see how our new board de-stacker, stencil printer,...
Continuous improvement requires change, something many companies seek to avoid. That’s part of what makes Z-AXIS different from other electronic manufacturers. Learn how our culture of continuous improvement is helping us to improve quality, add capacity, and master...
Z-AXIS uses thermal profiling to optimize our soldering process and, unlike other manufacturers, creates a thermal profile for each board. Thermal Profiling for Each Board During reflow and wave soldering, printed circuit board assemblies are conveyed through an oven...
Electronics manufacturing uses significant amounts of compressed air and nitrogen. Buying these work gases is expensive, and liquid nitrogen isn’t ideal because the tanks are small and the nitrogen must continuously boil off. That’s why it’s important to find smart,...
Z-AXIS simulates electronic circuits with SPICE. This graphical software lets us create schematics and quickly see voltage, current, power dissipation, and other results without physically building, probing, and scoping a circuit. The process begins by creating a...
