Since UIC does not support older machines anymore, is there another way to upgrade our GSM1? We have an I-block hardware running OS2.11 and USOS 1.4.14. I would like to upgrade to USOS 3.xx, to be able to use Enhanced Product setup feature. Any hints

If you are looking for a more updated machine we can sell GSM's upgraded with windows, 42v interface, and precision pro feeder banks. Our machines will be calibrated and you will not be invoiced until after acceptance. Gregg Bartosz, gbartosz@ce-ex

Check with Universal on service. The GSM is a solid machine. Very well built. The older machines will run under IBM OS2 OS. Nothing wrong with this OS. There have been some vision system upgrades also. The older GSM might have the AIS3500 or ne

You can upgrade GSM machines to process flip chips. Yes, you do need special software and nozzles and probably a new camera with more resolution.
