Hello everyone,
Whew, we just concluded our annual surveillance audit with zero nonconformities - which is a first in my career - very pleased! My question to the forum is about how to apply Clause 7.5.2 to a process such as soldering for PCB repair. Does anyone have suggestions as to how the solder process can be validated? I have worked for board manufacturers in the past, and visual inspection was by and far the most widely used approach, however, it seems that in Cianfrani's book ISO 9001:2000 Explained he refers to soldering process as requiring validation. Help please.
On the other hand, I can see where something like the cross-hatch test that we use in our silkscreen processes would require validation. I am available to add input and answer any questions to help clarify the situation.
Thanks,
