Depends on the actual requirements of the machine & the skill of the operator, but for that sort of money I've seen Juki 570's with a stack of feeders, Versatronics RV4's, older Mydata's, Samsung CP30's, Essemtec, Philips CSM's etc. I even once bough

Hey All, Thanks for all of your help to date. While running the nozzle height test I noticed that the Z-rod is bent. Probably happened after setting the "X closed loop soft home" back to 50 from 384 which was probably why the nozzle slammed into t

Motor error 4 is an error that is caused by the machine not reaching a position in a timely matter. Usually its in the x/y axis but also could be z. If you have cleared the mod codes (function 35 shift 7) the machine should home. Usually this problem

To solve your problem....you should do the following: 1. Super Lube the o-rings on the z-rod bellows. 2. Make sure your head to camera calibration and head to head calibration is good. 3. Line up the nozzle changer pocket positions. 4. Make sure you

Hello, The only thing i can think of is the x&y ribbon cables. I know you said they are good but they could have an intermittent break. I would get a spare set and plug them in with the machine at a slow speed setting and see if it works as normal. A

I have a problem setting up the LAE on my Quad 4c. I set it up for 0805, and it seems to work, although it rejects a lot of parts, at least it places "most" of them. I tried setting up on a soic14, and could not get even one to pass. I believe I h

I've got a scary one for you guys and desperately need your help - We just purchased a second Quad 4C and had some communication problems when we first turned it on (we're still working on that issue). To chase down the problem, we decided to start

Hello Bobpan, Thanks for the suggestions. Sorry I didn't reply yesterday as I'd gone home - I'm in the UK, so I'm guessing there's a time difference. Okay, I found the control to turn off the vacuum verify - it's SHIFT - SWITCH/VERIFY. Makes no di
