Differant machines have differant types of control. smoe use pulse motors with encoders and are controlled by PMD pulse motor drivers. Most of these will have parameters to determine things such as fast over shoot, speed for certian tools and varati

I have found a company called Cleveland Motion Control that will fix them for a flat fee. Did a little searching and found them using Altavista.com Cheers

Hi, 1. Take a multi meter and measure the voltage - I assume it is a DC motor(probably 24V). If you don't, check power supply,cable, relays and Driver for the motor. If you do have voltage, check sensors(sometimes sensor activated may stop your con

hello, I have a GSM2 machine with faulty motor driver (i guess), usually when this error occurs i would rest it via button on a panel several times, but this time it doesnt work. what should i check/ measure to locate this problem? there is 7 blink

Hi, Yes you can use a PWM (Pulse Width Modulator). This is much more efficient than a large resistor & gives you good control. Here is a sample for 12V motor control: http://www.homepower.com/files/pwmhp75.pdf

Hi everyone....I'm a student working on a short research project on industrial control algorithms - and part of the scope that we are looking at is SMT pick and place machines. I was wondering if anyone knows what type of control is used for the no

Motor Error 5 is usually an interlock error. Take off the rear right cover and look at the red and green led's on the driver cards. If they are both lit....you have a door open or if you have carts....a feeder base switch is up. Good Luck

Thanks for the response bobpan! LED's on the driver cards work well (green with doors closed and both red&green on with door open), and I don't use the carts. The head doesn't move after power on and inmediately you can listen alarm.

Are both red and green leds on for the driver cards (they are located in the bottom right of the machine). If they are both on then you have an interlock opened. If this is the case....check the side doors....sometimes they are not shut all the way.

We have two QUAD 4C working in tandem. 3 months ago the EPCU battery (QUAD # 2) died, then we change it. Then downloaded the MODs from the controller to the assembler(does simultaneously on both machines). All this time we continue to work normally.
