Hi everyone, New to the forum and have a question. How many cph are others getting? We are small sub-contract firm and are running Mydata my12 with hydra, but not agilis feeders. We tend to do small batches (upto 100 circuits), high mix from 0402 to

Jobbie, We are also not using the Mydata forks for the vibe feeders. We take a tube for the vibe component and cut a pick pocket. We use the back of the forks as stops. This has eliminated many of the pick problems from the vibes. Good Luck Chris

Good Morning jobbie, We have several Mydata lines. We are building low volume high mix as well. Our CPH had been identified as approximately 6000-8000 CPH depending on the application of course. We do have a separate setup area however that stages a

Hi, One think we always hated when running MYDATA was the vib feeder, and we had no end of problems. The supplier told us most people angled the component tubes up, however then the vib settings change between when the tubes full, and mostly empty.

I will like to compare my average component placement per hour on a Fuji CP-6 versus other companies using the same machine. Can you share with me your average? Thanks, Honorio
