How do I remove kapton tape from soldered parts in bulk?

I have a batch of PCBs with SMT nuts which has been assembled onto a PCB - the nut has kapton tape on top to allow easy pickup for assembly. How can we do this faster/what's a better method?

Poke the tape with a rod from the back (which loosens it but doesn’t remove it completely), and then use tape to remove it. The method is pretty quick and can remove several thousand per hour when using a jig.

Can I design SMD elements on the back of THT?

I’m designing a PCB right now and found out I can save a lot of space using the back of THT elements. Is it legit to design like that? Are there any problems that might occur?

Hoe soldeer ik losse draden op een flexibele printplaat??

Try to repair electronic sphygmomanometer now. It seems wires fell off from the flexible PCB, leaving trail on there. How do I solder them to the flex-PCB?

Do you use SMT or THT for USB mini B connector?

This question is about the advisability of continuing to use a USB mini-B right angle surface mount connector in my pcb designs. On occasion we see one of these connectors peel back or delaminate off the pcb. Immediately the question is asked, why didn’t you use a through hole connector?
