Hey everyone, I hope all of you doing well this time of the year. We have an old Juki / Zevatech 740 pick and place machine and we got a problem with the vision alignment, every placement is off by 2mils. How can you run an offset calibration on t

Right. Fiducial comes with the CAD data or the gerber files. If it doesnt, and you need to create fiducial coordinates, you may use a digitizer or a caliper and make use of the reference pin as the origin. Now if the fiducial camera focus is way out,

Have you created block offsets for each board in the panel? We have rotated baords in panels but have not had to use block fiducials, we just use board fids. We place 0402s and 16mil fine pitch on multiple boards in a panel with boards rotated 180

What the other user was talking about is correct, converting it from gerber to machine cad. It is hard explaining programming SMT to a new user unless shown by another experience operator. I am also getting a topaz x pretty soon and I'll try to hel

We always do block conversion and have never had a problem. Is there a problem with the accuracy of your PCBs from the vendor? If you can get a panel placed correctly the next panels should also place correctly. I just created a 2x8 panel with hal

We use Siemens equipment at our plant. I agree with what everyone said in the forum. These machines are primarily made for fixed or specfic PCB runs. The feeders are very well built as others have metioned. If you plan on excessive change over's,

Ohh, MY! Well, there is a whole block of info that is machine specific. There are 4 things on the main menu, the last one is the system calibrations. It has offsets between the primary reference (if you don't have vision, like mine) then the beam

| My company has a product line that utilizes multi-up PCB's. In order to cut costs for this product line, I have been asked to look into ways of running panels that contain bad blocks. Our SMT equipment is quite capable of doing this, but I need to

Yup. It was definitely checking the fiducials as well as the block skip marks and it used to work pretty well. What it did was started at the center of where the fiducial should be and scanned left. When it found a change in contrast it scanned righ

2, I have to scroll down to the bottom to see the image... and the outline of the legs isn't very clear. The legs are sort of blurred together. I had tried lowering the CCD offset in the part definition to -50, but it still looked bad. Could this
