We are building complex computer boards that have a few odd form parts that we would like to place while still while on an inline section of conveyor. Using tweezers to place the parts is possible but very awkward. Has anyone seen a creative way to

Kevin, I saw a few months ago in a Philips pamphet that they now have a "tray" that sits at the feeder locations for loose components or a small tape of components. I think it was for the Topaz machine.

Hi, I guess you a looking for a manual x-y table with a vacuum pick up such as SMT6000 from OK industries. I presume these are still being made-- We use one successfully at the end of a Mydata machine to place low volume components which we cannot j

Of course, if the number of required component codes ( = feeders) is not very great, you might want to look into odd-form assembly machines. With them you can insert a much greater range of components than just simple radial components and you can ge

Hi, Why not have a look at Philips/Assembl�on, their ACM machine is quite nice. It may also bring you down to Flip Chip, 0201 some through hole and odd form placement. Nice options like bulk feeding, coplanarity tests, fluxing for FC, prom feeders (

Hi Folks, Starting a second SMT line this year and it's been (too) long since I have looked at newish machines and I am in need of some assistance with P&P machine selection. Here is what we currently have: Panasonic CM-202 chip shooter 216 8mm reel

Call me Mr Picky,... but you can still buy new Fuji Chipshooters: http://www.fuji.co.jp/e/SMT/smt_Products/cp842/index_cp8.html ...and they'll still be working when our kids have shoved us dribbling into retirement homes. In answer to your other

We're currently running a manncorp ECM-93, which has served us alright, but we've pretty much outgrown it. We manufacture power electronics, a lot of double sided designs with odd form parts. We have about 30 different designs we manufacture, and we

The odd form assemblers are extremely slow compared to the Axial & Radial UIC machines. Also there is a big cost for feeders. Key question is what is the max axial & Max radial feeder count on your biggest job and that will quickly tell you how man

Jerry, Contact FujiAmerica and ask for their newest product Guide. Some differences are..... IP2 - SMD1 vision (back lighting only, coplanarity check optional) IP3 - SMD3 vision (back, front, coplanarity check optional) IP3 - BGA transport, I
