Dear Sir’s
I have heard a lot about PPM. But sorry to say that I don’t know how to calculate the same in SMT industry. Please let me kanow abou the same. Please revert.0June 4, 2004 at 3:31 pm #101244
GabrielParticipant@GabrielInclude @Gabriel in your post and this person will
be notified via email.I don’t know what is SMT, but the calculation of PPM is allways the same:
1) Count all parts
2) Inspect all parts
3) Count defective parts
4) PPM=1,000,000 * defective parts / all parts0June 5, 2004 at 6:18 am #101278

May be IPC – 9261 will help you.
Mahendra0June 5, 2004 at 5:56 pm #101282I am assuming that you refer to surface mount technology when you say SMT, and I agree with your previous two posters. Your calculations are the same regardless of the technology at play, and the IPC standards – probably IPC 610 (E – I think it is now) give you the defect types impacting both internal and external acceptance of your process/product. You will/can get into an endless circular debate regarding defects on your surface mounted chip, is it one lead solder defective out of many on a chip at issue or is it a process defect to have one on the board/final assembly – the main thing is to assure criteria selection consistency between the numerator and denominator for your calculation, make it meaningful and stick with it. Benchmark within your industry. If you need more detail, please ask – I had some fun years in aerospace engineering and operations prior to medical products. Good luck.
0June 6, 2004 at 3:14 am #101285IPC-7912 and IPC-9261 call out the industry standards for how to use and calculate various metrics for the SMT world.
It directs you on calculating DPMO, DPPM (PPM), OMI (Overall Manufacturing Index), yields, etc. They are decent manuals. Check them out.0June 7, 2004 at 5:28 pm #101342
