A few years back when I was working in a Hybrid company we used carriers machined from aircraft grade aluminum. Its easy to machine on a Mill doesn't bend so easy when mishandled.The thing to know is do your flex circuits sit flat when placed on the

Hi all, We are having a lot of trouble with mis-pick trying to place silicone dome LEDs(3535 package) It seems that the silicone of the LEDs is sticking to the side wall of the carrier tape pocket. The vacuum nozzle would normally suck up the led an

One tip that I found very useful in this application that hasn't been mentioned is auto pick up position teach. Our Panasonic equipment will constantly move the pick up position in regards to the center of the nozzle when scanned. On older Panasonic

We are using a custom made nozzle, designed for this particular LED. The dome of the LED is also custom made, the diameter of the lens at the base is 2.9mm while the substrate of the package is 3.3mm, so this gives about 0.2mm spacing between lens a

The problem is that.. 1) it always drops at the same location and the vacuum led shows that machine indeed turns the vacuum off ! 2) the same nozzle picks up much heavier components from other feeders without problems 3) the MTU component - i turn
