If you are using the upward camera then you probably have to put in a placement offset for each head. This only effects upward camera placements...not quadalign. This is located in: 1. machine-calibration-camera lens 2. Choose upward camera2 under "

Quad4C's have their moments. If the price is right and you are aware of the machines limitations then you will be satisfied. The placement rate is slow, 1.2 seconds/chip. Don't buy any Quad if it has the CyberOptics Laser unit, the Quadalign unit is

We have started using an RGB LED and today ran the first boards down our line. I noticed an immediate issue with placing these. I'm using a quad QSP-2. The part sticks to the nozzle. The nozzles are clean. I have adjusted machine handling so that vac

Are feeders included? Otherwise, the MS 102/132 sell even for lower prices here in US. Add shipping and training and you get to the same result. Juki, Contact and Quad may fall in the same price range, but spare parts and service tech availability wi

This is a most INTERESTING thread! Every Pick and Place machine has its plus side and negative. Having worked on both sides, broker/service and production, I think I have a unique perspective on this. Over the years our market has changed to be mo

I keep circling back to my initial choice, a Quad IVc (or IIc) because there are so damn many of them and despite their quirks/foibles/whatever, they are clearly capable of getting the job done. Specifically, I've got my eyes on a few refurbished mod

Hey folks... been reading the threads here the last couple of weeks and don't seem to be getting any smarter (and given my level of ignorance about this equipment, I was sure I could only go up from here...). I've been an independent design engineer

Long time no update. We ended up buying a used Quad IIc for something like $2500 + shipping - no kidding - through CAE. They originally wanted $5,200 but they wouldn't commit to saying it was operational and we wouldn't commit to buying it if they di

Whether the Juki is a great machine or not is irrelevant as we just can't justify the "starting from" price of $87k (€58k). So, thanks for the suggestion, but we're trying to keep this under $20k and given that sort of budget we could either buy a cr
