Hi Wayne, First, all Gem machines including Topaz, TopazX, Sapphire, etc... have the same feeders. You can use either FV feeders (which were the ones when Topaz was introduced), or CL feeders (which came when Topaz X was introduced). Both types of f

MyData TP9s Work well in high mix applications because change over time from 1 job to the next can be done in as little as 15 minutes if you have the right mix of magazines/feeders. Component placement rates vary depending on which component you ar

Has anyone ever ran into a 20mm pitch on a 24mm tape and reel. Our software doesnt have a setting for 20mm. we found a way around it, but i was curious as to how common this pitch is, and if other software or feeders have a 20mm setting.

We use Samsung and our 24mm feeders have 8,12,16,and 20mm pitch settings. I have found 20mm pitch quite common. My favorite is yhe 12 on 12 our feeders don't support that, we have to put them up on 16mm feeders our cycle them 3 times on a 4mm pitch

EIA-481 standard allows the maximum pitch on tape to be 4mm less than the tape width (12mm width and larger). So it is within the standard allowances. As for how common 20mm pitch on 24mm tape is I can not say. I am surprised a 24mm tape feeder ca

I have been earnestly seeking out a resource from whom I might purchase used Philips feeders for the ACM line. Due to its relatively recent introduction into the market, these are rather hard to find, and have not had much luck going through Philips
