Coplanarity
Lead frames and package interfaces must remain stable enough for downstream assembly and automated handling.
Burr and edge condition
Edges, openings, and stamped profiles must be controlled to reduce assembly risk and protect functional surfaces.
Warpage
Forming, plating, and handling conditions are reviewed to reduce distortion in thin or complex metal features.
Thickness and forming consistency
Material stock, forming paths, and die conditions must support repeatable geometry across production lots.
Plating interface
Sealing, soldering, bonding, and contact surfaces must match the package process and downstream requirements.
Tape and reel readiness
Carrier format, orientation, inspection flow, and handling stability are considered before high-volume delivery.
