VR SOP Training for Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS)

Stable SMT builds and cleaner handovers—step by step

EMS plants must control paste, placement, reflow and test to tight tolerances. Spark builds bespoke VR training that mirrors your stencil/paste care, SPI/AOI, pick-and-place, reflow profiles, THT wave/selective, conformal coat and ICT/FCT—so teams practise the exact order safely.

Common issues we fix

• Solder quality: paste condition, print height, reflow profile and void control.
• Placement: feeder set-up, nozzle choice, fiducials and Cpk drift.
• Through-hole: lead length, preheat, wave height and solder flags.
• Test & trace: fixture handling, limits, serial capture and rework routing.

How our custom build works

1. Capture SOPs & CTQs: paste specs, machine recipes and QA gates.
2. Create scenarios: stencil change, feeder load, profile swap, test fail recovery.
3. Coach in VR: prompts matched to your HMIs, travellers and labels.
4. Measure: first-pass yield, defect Pareto and retraining needs.

Benefits

• Higher FPY and fewer escapes.
• Faster NPI ramp and changeovers.
• Audit-ready training records for customers.

Why Spark

Your lines, limits and work instructions—turned into practical, repeatable training.
