Enter A value of -1 in the Tray pickup X & Tray pickup Y fields. This will disable the automatic empty tray pickup by the machine. I would recommend getting a data sheet on the tray from the component vendor for accurate pocket & tray dimensions. Var

Hi all, We are starting to see more and more 0402 components on BOMs of late. We have a small quantity of feeders at the moment which are 8x2 paper. Any 0402 components we have placed have been on these feeders. I noticed that you can get embosse

Are you using the old type FV or the new CL Feeders? We place melfs all day long and never ran into a problem with feeder advancement. Sometime the manufactures of the components apply to much glue to the tape which can cause problems with feeder adv
