Juki machines generally are great machines for reliablity and maintaining overall accuracy as they have full linear (mag-scales) encoders on XY axis and self calibration features. Laser centering has its pros and cons - mostly pros, but can have iss

I'm somewhat frazzled by this one, not being too familiar with the MYs. Head is clean, tried different tools, same tool# from another MY, and have run the Centering Base Level Calibration to no avail. The component heights are correct and the par

It's been a while since my MYDATA days, but let's give this a shot. Did you try putting the tool away and picking it back up? Make sure your Midas Head is cleaned and the tool is lubricated properly, then do a Center Base Leveling Calibration. (I t

Phil is on the right track. Try this.... Go into the service program, and bring up the vacuum force indicators. Manually install a spring loaded tool into the Midas head. Once the tool is in the head, press on the tip of the nozzle with your finger.

Hello, we have problem with indicator. When we manually install a spring loaded tool into the Midas head, the force remain at 180. We can't use spring tools. Can you advise me how can we calibrate the force indicator and what else should I try to fix

If I understand correctly you want to pick BGAs from the ball side using some type of vacuum arrangement. You will find that the reliability of this is dependant on the size of the balls and the pitch. The larger the balls and tighter the pitch, th

I agree with everybody here. There are plenty of better options than what you have proposed. Without knowing your equipment brand, or what type of offline software you have, if any, I have a few suggestions. 1) If you don't have any offline softwa

There is a new toy I received today: a NeoDen TM-240A automatic desktop pick and place machine! I’ve kept my eyes on this baby for a quite a while, and finally decided to make a purchase last week. The shipping was very fast: DHL from China, a total

Yes, this is a good point and really only time will tell just how reliable such a machine becomes. What I'm aiming for is to simplify and reduce the number of sub-assemblies. For example we are building the camera/vision processor and lighting into

Differant machines have differant types of control. smoe use pulse motors with encoders and are controlled by PMD pulse motor drivers. Most of these will have parameters to determine things such as fast over shoot, speed for certian tools and varati
