You got it. You are aware that Quad defines the theta by steps. 0 = 0, 90 = 6000, 180 = 12000 and 270 = 18000.

Do a function 30 on the hht and you should get a nozzle height of around 200. If its not and its around 1 you have something on the quad align lens and you will have the exact problem you are having. Hope this helps... Good luck

After an in depth examination, I found that the problem was not a defective connector as I thought in the first place. Actually is a broken through-hole on the Quad Align sensor. I requested a spare part to PPM. Mr. Bobpan, thank you again.

the glass is to keep dust out. Now that it is off the dust is already in. Leave the glass off and just run it. If you have a problem 6 months down the road then take dry air and blow it out.

Hello everyone, We recently got a Quad IVc machine with PPM software on it. We are struggling with 0402, as we get plenty QuadAlign failures. We ticked Vision on failure, so that we limit the amount of rejected parts, but on 0402 Vision system gi

Is there anyone using a QUAD QSA-30? I am experiencing problems with the Y axis drifting in the positive direction. This can occur anytime from a few minutes to several hours after the problem has been fixed. Fixed means recreating a program from scr

Mod code 69 in early firmware versions was laser align part size addition but in later versions is was laser intensity.....if its set to 0 try it at 250 and see what it does....if this doesnt work....set it back to 0. It seems that when you put somet

Tim, 1. You dont need the vacuum verify if the quadalign is working properly. If you have the part quad-aligned and dont have alignment type at 0 it will never 'not' place a part. More or less...the vac verify was needed for the chucking machine (3c)

My Quad IVc's will also do the same thing. Mine are equipped with CyberOptics scanners, not QuadAlign. The Cyberoptics scanners do go bad and once they do, they get very warm to the touch and at the same time, if the Quad is reset, the theta axis wil

Hi, I just returned from vacation, I left some unfinished business I should resume. Our Quad 4c has a broken Align head (I was able to diagnose this problem thanks to the help of mr. Bobpan). Just after my first posting, I was e-mailed by PPM and I r
