You can use cut tape on Mydata machines fairly easily. We are a high mix, low volume manufacturer who has to use cut tape often as that is what our EMS customers provide. It is does take more time to load/unload than a reel does so you need to fi

On our Mydata machine, we place a piece of scrap bare pcb next to the pcb we are loading. Using double sided tape, we attach the cut tape strip to the bare pcb, then program the machine to pick up the parts from that location. The smallest Mydata m

Does anyone know of fully automatic pick and place machines that can pick up parts either from small pieces of cut tape (i.e. 0402's, 0603's, SOT's) or components loosely arranged on a tray (not ic's that are in matrix trays)? Application is proto

Thanks for the info. On the Mydata do you position the cut tape inside a feeder or place it on a tray of some sort? Here the environment is OEM R&D lab so a Mydata would be overkill in terms of size and cost. I was thinking of a smaller auto pick

| I am examining cut & form PTH component prep equipment to help in our manual PTH insertion process. We need the ability to process both axial & radial with snap-in and stand-off capability. Low volume with the ability to feed bulk, T&R, or Stick. |

Steve Thomas: Thank you for the well-written, helpful explanations. Fastek: You must be an accountant. Your advice was totally correct, but of absolutely no use whatsoever. Why even post it? I was basically told; Suprise! You are in charge of o

Have you tried running it in step mode? Yes, and more. The installer asked me to run a few tests: 1> Intentionally make the machine miss insert a part then put a part in manually to see how the leads align to the cutter head. 2> Push the re
