We have been having problems placing a domed LED with a Mydata HYDRA. The pocket that the part comes in seems to have some slop causing the part to be picked crooked. We have been playing around with different custom tools. Has anyone had similar

Not sure what your job quantity is, or how many total parts you have to place, but we've had similar issues in the past trying to place domed LEDs. We had better luck cutting the tape into 25 or 50 piece strips and using double-sided tape to put the

I only have first-hand experience with 2 pick-n-place machines, but both used a small pressure puff to insure part release. I haven't seen any software settings for this, but a small solenoid valve was dedicated to the operation. I recommend you look

Thank u for al of the reactions. I'm wondering if there are other manufacturers that use rectangular nozzle's. Because when I look at the LED when it's in the reel, I doubt it could get picked up like that. I seriously doubt that there is anyone he

For 0402's, if the operator is paying attention, our equipment Panasonic CM 402/602/NPM's run at about .001%. Again this is dependent on an operator that pays attention to the fail rate. We usually don't have too many problems with 0402's, LED's ar

Agreed with Thomas i increase wait time when picking and slow down Z axis. If you think it is the tape, I would suggest you send one tape to a company that puts parts in tape. let them use different pocket and compare result. If the part is sticky an

I must say so far the yamaha seems to fit the bill. Most of our products are low mix. Less than 6 different components per board. 90% are only 2 lol. So just looking at how the yamaha operates it seems gang picking the same part off 12 feeders seems

Hi Reckless, I'd feel uncomfortable placing that part as I've only ever used Sapphires as chipshooters and LED placers, not that I don't believe it can't do it, I just haven't personally done it on that machine. We always had multi machine lines. I

Maybe you have to contact your machine support they can modify special nozzle for that component...i dont know what else you can try...or just contact your support and ask them what to do...we had a similar problem with LED diode on our machine..and

Is the nozzle used to pick the offending used to pick other parts in this program? Have had experience where the LED's inside the nozzle backlight have broken down causing Vision Processing errors. And worth making sure that the brushes on the head a
