I don't work on quads but I can give you some things to look for... Each of the moving axis work off a motor that is controlled by a "drive". Some of these drives have a fault or error output that is connected to the motion controller. One of your

Just to set the record straight... Samsung did not build all Quad machines. QSA = Quad Samsung America, The QSA-30 machine platforms were manufactured by Samsung, utilizing Quad feeders, other Quad technology and Quad sales and service. Before the

One of my 8mm feeders is blinking the red led after the pick-up. With both buttons the motor works as expected (forward/backward), but after the nozzle pick-up the motor moves forward and then the red led blinks. pressing the buttons the green led l

Hi, my Quad IV-c is showing a really dark image on the camera and its VERY difficult to see the components pads to make the adjusts. I already check the monitor brightness (at maximum and I can see the crosshair, so the monitor is good) and already

Move the camera over a feeder position and shine a flashlight to see if the image improves.....if it does....your light ring needs replaced or the led's need replaced in it. Sometimes just re-adjusting the angle of the led's in the ring can help. Go

First I would only be concerned about the front panel led's if the transport is not clamping. These LED's are most likeley burnt out. If the transport clamps your sensors are working properly. If you are seeing a "Place 1 Z" on the handheld it is ask

Do you have the motor power turned on? It is next to the main power breaker (front panel of machine). Are all the covers down? Are the side covers pushed all the way in? What is the led status of your driver cards? They should be all green with no re

Thanks Bob. Using a flashlight helps a lot, indeed. Is "re-adjust the angle" just a bend on the LEDs heads (by hand)? I will try. To replace de LEDs, can I use white ones? I believe with the reds I get less light than whites, but maybe the camera ne

SOLVED The LED/phototransistor was a little of the center on the "index wheel" (don't know a better name, its the gear that pulls the component strip). The wheel works with a LED from one side and a phototransistor from the other, through a hole on

Thanks for that Steve - I'll try anything at the moment, but that sounds like a reasonable suggestion. I've already replaced a few cables that looked dodgy, and the LEDs on the LED rings, but I've not done a ribbon cable on the head yet. I shall hav
