The air kiss is to replace the vacuum with air so the part will drop off the nozzle. Every machine I've seen with Air kiss, uses it when discarding a part as well as when placing a part. The air kiss should not be strong enough to blow the nozzle off

One of our GSM machines started having an issue with "spitting" parts onto the board / blowing them around. I determined the problem be that spindle #2 on our flex head is not touching the parts all the way down to the board. It is stopping just abov

You need to adjust the air kiss. The machine blows a slight amount of air after placement and it is probably adjusted too high.

Jacky, we have had a similar problem. We needed to go to a smaller nozzle and also check your vacuume system and air kiss.Could be after placement when the machine blows air to insure the part is off the nozzle that it is effecting the solder brick.

If you are using vib. feeders than the component may be flipped length wise by the following components. Components should be landing with the leads on the right side but upside down. If you are using tape feeders the component may be flipped sideway

Have you tried a smaller nozzle? I'm wondering if the air is escaping through the cut outs on the device on the air kiss stage.

If it were other machines I would suggest the possibility of air kiss blowing the solder away, but mydata's have a release to make sure the air kiss never gets too high. Unless it is not pointing 90 degrees away from the machine like mydata recommend

Added to MARK suggestion, you should verify you xy table height also by using the meter listed in the maintenace manual. If everything is fine, then i suggest you should check the placement air kisses( can suck your component back up or release to q

Missing and misplaced components could be down to board supports set too high or too low. Check the ZO and make sure the deflection is set ok at various points across the board. Check the other usuals such as sticking nozzles, correct size nozzle for

The nozzles are brand new too (got them friday). 08MPF (0.08") is their part number. I tried using the air kiss feature in the setup mode and found that it blew the nozzle off the nozzle holder, not sure if this is ment to happen in this mode, but t
