We consider stencils to be 'tools'. That way, we take steps to make sure they are available, when we start a build that requires them.

We read what you wrote, but were unclear on what you were asking. Like: What's a feeder maintenance footprint?

We don't consider feeders to be tools. Each is a calibratable machine with seperate maintenance and calibration schedules.

Feeders are "calibrated" according to the manufacturer's instructions. Check your manual.

Maintenance schedules are based on: * Design * Use
