You might also have a dirty/sticky Z-rod resulting in the same problem, although ordinarily you'll see a lot of missed pickups as well.

I hope that you don't miss that data later on. My suggestion of changing align type to "2" (in the extent data) eliminates the alignment step but leaves the data intact.

That's funny... I thought that the Quads were DESIGNED to PRETEND TO PLACE PARTS..... you mean, you actually gone one to work? I'm impressed.

You'd be surprised what you can overcome with some smarts, some mechanical aptitude, and daily medication.

Stick with what you already know. A GSM1 with a 4 spindle head is the way to go. Its excellent for balancing a line becuase you can place anything with it. Or if you need to dispence glue or odd form parts you can add another head later.

Larry, Do a runstep nozzle then open the door and look and see if the nozzle is all the way on. Push up on it and see if it moves up

Hi, I trialled 4 or 5 of the main suppliers including Kester. I went with Alpha OM338 SAC305 - exceeded all expectations and actually performs better than PB Paste in my opinion. aj...

Many use the following guideline when judging the proper paste for a stencil aperature: You want approximately 5 particles minimum across the smallest aperture.
