I started with Dual Beam, 7 spindle, Genesis machines. (first in 2003) - Still runs good Speed was not my main concern... Odd Form, Tall components were. I added High Speed with the Lightning Head machines. (first in 2005) - Still runs Good I am not

Make sure you get a good upward looking camera combo. 4.0 on rear and 2.6 for PTF (platform tray feeder) parts is my favorite. Easy to wrench on, calibrate (if you have a cal. kit), and easy to program. Single beam will run at 2000+ cph and dual b

The 22,000 cph is for the dual beam machine (C5d), which is in production now alongside our single beam machine. They are built on the same frame and share many assemblies. In fact we only show rendered images of both machines. This is to show the

JB, First of all thank you for the "great salesman" compliment. And thank you for bringing up this wonderful thread because the more people that read it the better. I don't mean to make you look foolish (or maybe I do) but perhaps you should take a

We're in the process of trying to select a rebuilt, refurbished, or well serviced flexible placer, something that's capable of placing in the neighborhood of 10k and up. We're a high mix low volume shop so easy setups is key. I'd be looking at a MY-9

We are in North Western U.S. I like 2.6 better (for our mix of builds, anyway). 1.0 works great on PTF parts such as fine pitch QFP's but I don't like it for chips. It's too picky and we wind up forcing parts to the 4.0. We have another GSM dual

The Advantis was more accurate than the turret, so he claimed. The Single beam (dual lead screw drive-this is not a GSM 1) flex machine is $125K the Lightning is $150K. They changed the pricing in 2004. I was quoted a Topaz XII at $187K. I know Phili

Is this a single beam (GSM1)or a dual beam machine (GSM2)? If it is a GSM1; how does the pickup works with Head 2 from the front feeder banks? Do you have removeable or fixed feeder banks? If removeable, make it fixed, using screws through the bank
