Hello, We are currently trying to design and ultimately implement a system that will be able to count and manage component placement for three Sanyo chipshooters on three SMT lines. As the number of components decreases in the reels we want to be ab

We have a Yamaha GEM and the laser will not recognise components. The laser has been changed in the past by another engineer, but this failed to rectify the problem. Can anyone advise how to test the laser or use some machine diagnostics so that I

We had a similar system on the Siemens machines, quite some time ago. However, it was not a laser light but a LED and a fiber cable. Actually the center fiber or receiver was surrounded by a bundle of small fibers for the LED light source. You may al

Ken, You'd think so but the tooling pins only register to the drilling process for the PCB. The fiducial registers to the copper pattern and for both glueing and placing SMT components the pads are more important than the holes. That's why the machi

Hi everyone, I've been out of it for a while after 27 years. Got made redundant in February. What can you do? I know - turn 60 and get cranky. That'll be the ticket. Anyway...... Trying to help someone out with a Yamaha YVL88MKII. I am very conversa

Greetings, I would like to do a height calibration, because the laser of the machine seems to be out of control, I'll explain why: When I measure the height of a 0402 resistor, I get around -0.60 to -0.70, when I fix it on what the machines has measu

Hello, mcdvoice It seems like your Juki RS-1R machine's laser height calibration may be off. When measuring a 0402 resistor, it consistently reports heights around -0.60 to -0.70, causing pickup issues during production. Manually adjusting it to -

Unfortunately, I can't give any help but wanted to ask about your experience with the 740 machine? How reliable has it been for you? Would you buy another or upgrade to newer machine? I just bought 2 pm570s arriving tomorrow. If they work out wel

OK, with my masterful powers of deduction, I have been able to resolve the problem. Upon further investigation, it became apparent that the issue was restricted to those components that had the laser alignment level in the component data set to -0.2
