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.

What is the proper zero orientation for a SMT LED?

According to IPC-7351, the cathode should be on the left for a molded diode. Echter, when I use component wizard of my suppliers to create a diode, it places the cathode (K) on the right. Does it depend on the manufacturer? How does the assembly house know which way is correct?

Zijn er problemen als ik verander? 0805 te 0402 opbouwmontage of kleiner?

Om de grootte van een PCB te verkleinen, Ik zal waarschijnlijk kleinere SM-componenten moeten gebruiken. Ik gebruik momenteel vooral 0805 passieven, en ik denk erover om er heen te gaan 0402 or smaller. Apart from power dissipation considerations, any pitfalls I should be aware of when making the transition?
