Rev 1.19 - Gratitude and a Look Ahead

This episode is short but sweet. Join Daniel, Elias, and Sean as they look back over 2024 and Rev 1 of The D-Code Podcast.

You won't want to miss out on our favorite parts of Rev 1 and our goals and plans for the future. Special thanks to all our guests and organizations such as SMTA and IPC who have already shown themselves to be excellent partners. Best wishes and enjoy your final days of 2024 while you can!

Rev. 1.18 Ft. Tony Kelbert

Join Daniel, Elias, and Sean as they discuss high-level #smt concepts with Tony Kelbert ranging from comparing and contrasting #3dprinting with laser etching to his favorite parts of his job. This is a fun, imagery heavy episode with lots of material beneficial to people on the fringes of SMT - like Cathy Rinne from Flex-line Automation who comes up this episode - and it is a nice, light-hearted episode that has a lot of laughs.Watch now!Tony Kelbert: www.linkedin.com/in/tonykelbert/

Rev 1.17 (Ft. Bill Capen)

Back to back process conversations! Bill Capen from @honeywell has 37 years of experience, and it shows through this conversation. From the effects of solder paste selection for environment and process to European sparrows, Bill guides Daniel, Elias, and Sean through an informative conversation.Maybe it is all a big coincidence, (Narrator: It wasn't) but Bill is working with Chrys Shea on trainings right now and is in full brainstorming mode on "what the people want and need".Because we like to support American manufacturing, the *Oregon* made vacuum ovens Bill referenced can be found here: www.cascadetek.com

Rev 1.16 (Ft. Chrys Shea)

Prepare to summit the peak of D-Code Podcast Entertainment! We've arrived, in that Chrys Shea honored us with her presence! For only being her 3rd appearance on a podcast, she sure delivered! Chrys is a barrel of laughs, and as much fun as we had, we sure hope you like it, too! Where to begin? Up for conversation is Chrys Shea's current passion, #uhdi, and the struggle of finalizing the design for a UHDI miniaturization test vehicle (#mtv) only to have the next smallest component announced by the time you present at #smtai. Oh, and did you know? Chrys was there working on the project that published discovery of the stencil area ratio rule. No big deal. You'll want to listen to the full episode, because not only does Chrys Shea drop constant knowledge throughout about process and continuous improvement, she also drops a couple cool announcements! Don't get it twisted - you heard it here first people!

Rev 1.15 (David K, X-ray Special)

Successfully, it seems! In all seriousness, the whole crew learned a lot in this great conversation with David Kruidhof from Comet about how #smt only increases reliance on x-ray as size of components decreases. While the conversation flows and the group has fun as usual, this episode is more question and answer as David shares his impressive knowledge. Don't bow out early, or you'll miss David's great summary of how different commonly used metals and materials show up in x-rays and how miniaturization is even impacting the creators of advanced imaging systems.
