@jimbelosic I’m a plant manager that’s young and hungry and currently manage stainless steel fabrication, injection molding, CNC and assembly operations for an OEM in a niche market. Would love to connect! Do you have an email I can send a resume to? Love what you guys stand for.

I'm hiring an Operations Director for one of our new buildings in Reno NV. Salary range is $170k-270k I don't really care if you come from a manufacturing background or not. Honestly, if you manage a Home Depot, Best Buy, or Olive Garden, you are a great fit. This will be YOUR building, with the backing of all SendCutSend support and resources. You'll get to: - Recruit/Train/Motivate a world class staff - Lead 200+ new employees across 4 shifts (24/7 operations) - Plan and forecast capacity - Maintain production capacity during rapid growth - Identify bottlenecks and offer solutions - Collaborate with other facilities to increase network strength - Manage vendors and contractors - Manage your P&L and drive improvements - Communicate and plan with headquarters - Be a customer, and drive CX improvements - Improve performance through active monitoring of production output, labor efficiency, quality metrics, and on-time shipment results. - Help foster our "Academy Company" culture through coaching, mentoring, and development of future SCS leaders - Exhibit complete ownership in all aspects of your operation I don't have the official job posting up yet, so comment or DM me if you know someone 🇺🇸

@CalebChamberla6 Yeah BLM are the main ones I’ve looked into. League of their own as far as I could tell. Tough to justify for a small OEM. We make do with our cheap chinese NC machine, a man can dream though!

@IanKillian It's a Transfluid machine. Also have BLM Group machines on the way.

This is why we decided to offer CNC tube bending, BTW.

@davidk368430332 @TheNumerophile0 @ed_dems Sorry you have nothing better to do with your life than worry about the political leanings of the cities in a country/state you don’t live in. Enjoy!

yea… they actually voted this one

@JDarakd @bstring80 @zanehengsperger You need a broker who works with a ton of different trucking companies so you have options. We ship hot stuff all the time that we request team drivers for, or even box trucks/vans for smaller shipments.

@JDarakd @bstring80 @zanehengsperger Try looking into Worldwide Express (WWEX). They are a broker for UPS but we also run all of our FTL/LTL shipments through them. They are a broker for all of the big trucking companies, XPO, Tforce, SAIA, RL Carriers, etc. You can get rates for all of those companies side by side.

shout out to NOX METALS very own @JDarakd for driving across the country to get an order delivered on time for one of our most important customers our freight broker failed us and our only options were to drive across the country or deliver 3 days late

@Matt_Felgate @robbederks @adeebshihadeh @comma_ai @directioncosine They already bought the stencil printer! Jet is definitely cool, didn’t know it could keep up like that. For the comma guys, I would suggest you also get an ultra sonic cleaner that is big enough to fit the stencils in. It helps clean the apertures really well which is important

@robbederks @adeebshihadeh @IanKillian @comma_ai @directioncosine MY700 should easily be able to do .35mm BGA if you adjust the paste deposits. Also have you checked the re-flow oven profile? Are you doing Flying Probe testing on the finished boards or just functional testing?

New machine day is the best day

@robbederks @Matt_Felgate @adeebshihadeh @comma_ai @directioncosine What pick and place are y’all getting?

@Matt_Felgate @adeebshihadeh @IanKillian @comma_ai @directioncosine We have 3 3Xs on one panel. Our current MY700 jetter can just about keep up with the PnP, but we're getting a significantly faster one of those as well. Also not jetting the 0.35mm pitch BGAs at the moment, wasn't easy to get consistsent enough

@adeebshihadeh @robbederks @Matt_Felgate @comma_ai @directioncosine We use a local company in Florida, tropical stencil. I would suggest trying to find someone local to you guys. We also use pcbway sometimes.

@IanKillian @robbederks @Matt_Felgate @comma_ai @directioncosine interesting, we'll keep it in mind. btw, do you have a stencil manufacturer you guys like?

@robbederks @Matt_Felgate @comma_ai @directioncosine Also just depends on the process reliability you are looking for. If the bga components are sensitive components or have a super small pitch between the balls then it might be worth it. A separate 3D spi will probably run you $100-$150k.

@robbederks @Matt_Felgate @comma_ai @directioncosine Hope you guys also got a 3D SPI machine if you are doing small bga stuff!

@adeebshihadeh @robbederks @Matt_Felgate @comma_ai @directioncosine We have a stencil printer w/ built in 2d spi as well. 2D is fine to look for bridging/missing paste on pads. 3D is needed to inspect the paste height which is important for BGA’s since once the component is on you can’t inspect it. I would suggest looking into it more…

@IanKillian @robbederks @Matt_Felgate @comma_ai @directioncosine It's got builtin SPI. you think we need more than that?

@Matt_Felgate @comma_ai @directioncosine Stencil printers are faster than jet printers, if you are running thousands of the same board, stencil smokes jet printer on speed. Also stencils are cheap if you are running the same board, only $400-$500 a stencil typically.

@comma_ai @directioncosine So I'm curious why you are now getting a stencil printer?

@mmiller1116 @BarstoolBigCat He would have to play 6-7 more seasons, so until he is 37 or 38 years old. Emmitt Smith played 15 years

@BarstoolBigCat What are the chances he can become the all time leading rusher?

Derrick Henry is still insane. He never stops being insane

Welcome Back to UCF @McKenzieMil10 🌴🤙

@904meech No way that’s true, you definitely joined in during Tank for Trevor and when we were trying to get Doug and Baalke fired. Those last 8 games of that season were actually fun because we were rooting for the 1st overall pick…

@IanKillian First time in my life I’ve rooted against this team
