I just heard that on the coming Productronica, Philips EMT will demonstrate a feeder on their ACM "placing" labels. Hope to see you all in Munich! 73

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.

used Philips Emerald, Emerald-X or Emerald X2 if you want networking and an easy GUI. The first 2 are DOS-based, the latter one WinNT based. They take the Yamaha feeders, which are frequently offered on the equipment mart.
