our equipment is Universal GSM1. we can't afford the price of a 44 mm multi pitch feeder from universal that's why we are planning to settle with the fixed pitch feeder. thanks

gary, If you know who you are buying the parts from( who is your vendor), you can either log on to there web site and find the packaging specs or contact them and ask. All you need is the manufacturing number of the part, and your purchasing group

Is there a chart available to use in identifying the pitch of fine pitch components - one with which a components leads could be matched ( similar to that of the component's "footprint" on the pcb ) ?

Sorry, scale division on that would be 0.05mm not 0.02mm. Magnification x24 or thereabouts. Also great for measuring all sort of things on pcbs, stencils etc to see if they come within spec.

Nick...I use a pair of digital calipers with no problems. all you do is measure one lead and zero the calipers with that reading on the display. then measue across 2 leads and the number is displayed is the pitch! That's the way I do it.

Nick: I got two choices for ya: 1 Call your supplier, have 'em send ya an outline drawing, and read the pitch from the drawing. 2 Buy a vernier caliper and measure the center to center spacing of the leads. Good luck

A former associate was quite pleased with product called ScanCad. If you e-mail me here at SMTnet, I'll get you in touch with him. I believe you could scan a bare pcb fab and extract centroids. Mark

Thank you, both for the replies gives me some good ideas. By the way Dave I could shoot that old arm system within 0.003� plenty good enough for 1206 and 50mil pitch. Thanks again, Travis
